# mkswap
|
||||
|
||||
> Set up a Linux swap area on a device or in a file.
|
||||
> Note: `path/to/file` can either point to a regular file or a swap partition.
|
||||
> More information: <https://manned.org/mkswap>.
|
||||
|
||||
- Set up a given swap area:
|
||||
|
||||
`sudo mkswap {{path/to/file}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Check a partition for bad blocks before creating the swap area:
|
||||
|
||||
`sudo mkswap -c {{path/to/file}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Specify a label for the partition (to allow `swapon` to use the label):
|
||||
|
||||
`sudo mkswap -L {{label}} {{/dev/sda1}}`
