I've even had swap partitions on other drives, with no apparent ill effects. But
I'd rather not "bless" your present arrangement and then have something go
wrong, so I'm hoping others will weigh in.

Subject: [PLUG] Position of swap partition
Does it matter what partition is formatted as swap on a drive? On my new
hard drive I've made 3 partitions, and think I should redo it because I made
/dev/sda1 the swap, /dev/sda2 will be /, and /dev/sda3 will be /tmp. I'm
thinking I should repartition so the sequence is /, swap, /tmp.
Thoughts?
Rich
