In the process of settings of the news, my system started telling me that I am running out of memory. I will be purchasing more physical memory, but I ran into a problem adding the second /dev/sd1b device as an addendum to the /dev/sd0b device that is currently handling the swap. I /dev/sd1b devicekeep getting an error saying /dev/sd1b device not configured is this a job for newfs? I have created a second mount point called /tmp2 and mode'd it with the sticky bit like the origional /tmp area, but I'm uncertain what it is saying when it claims that it is not configured sinse it was configured basically the same way as the first swap space /dev/sd0b. Help me.
