Hi, I use a physical hard drive for my main machine and LL is currently my everyday distribution. My current scheme has an extended partition, with a shared swap partition "at the front", 3 distros, and a sharing partition at the back. But this scheme was a little too ambitious, so I'm going down to only two distros.
My question is, now that LL is now going to a swap file, instead of a swap partition, does my swap partition for a secondary distro need to be my first partition or can my new scheme be LL4/swap partition/secondary distro? In other words, does my secondary distro care where physically the swap partition is?
