Is there a way to partition a disk so that the swap file space is larger than 16MB? I used roger's web page as a guide and made the extended partition 48MB, and therefore slice 6 defaults to 32MB instead of 16MB, but when using empegUpgrade to put 3a7 on the drive, it looks like it repartitioned everything.

Yeah, that's why you need the partitions to be exactly the same way that the Builder makes them, or else it all gets messed up when an .upgrade is applied. The .upgrade replaces an entire partition, and it expects the partitions to be in a certain place. If you mess with the sizes, things get messed up.

from my understanding, when i was messing with the upgradesplitter, an .upgrade file rewrites the partition table to what it thinks it should be, then dumps the appropriate diskimage on the coresponding /dev/ entry. now, this is just a theory, but if you never do a conventional upgrade (just use mlord's network upgrader tool), then it should be possible to keep it the way it is.
