I am a Linux/Knoppix 3.8.1 Newbie. After several Problems i have install Knoppix on my hd - AND in difference to the most Users, i killed my fuckin Windows installation. Great to that point. Now to the Problem: How can i create a seperate SwapPartition??? There are some things i have tried:
1. i create a Partition with cfdisk, size 750 MB, filesystem 82-Linux Swapfile.... But the Swapinstaller in the Knoppix-menu said, that tehre is no suitable partition....
2. i start gtpart - but tht program wont work at all!
3. i tried to format the swappartition with mkfs /dev/hda5. But the Swapinstaller in the Knoppix-menu said, that tehre is no suitable partition....

So, did anyone have a simple stsp-bby-step how to do this?
