swapfile on btrfs, temporary solution for wiki
Hello list, i know what btrfs don''t support swap files.
I read arch wiki and when i reading about systemd addon for auto
create swapfile on btrfs, i invent the way, how create and using swap
file, just see following sh code:
swapfile=$(losetup -f) #free loop device
truncate -s 8G /swap #create 8G sparse swap file
losetup $swapfile /swap #mount file to loop
mkswap $swapfile
swapon
