linux如何创建swap空间,LINUX 创建swap空间报错

1)问题：用文件方式创建swap空间，不能讲文件执行/dev目录下面。

[root@hostname]#  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/swapfile bs=1M

count=4096

dd: writing

`/dev/swapfile': No space left on device

3928+0 records in

3927+0 records out

4117778432 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 2.0016 s,

2.1 GB/s

[root@hostname]# mkswap -f /dev/swapfile

Setting up swapspace version 1, size =

4021264 KiB

no label,

[root@hostname]# du -sh /dev/swapfile

/dev/swapfile

[root@hostname]# ls -l /dev/swapfile

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4117778432 Oct 13

15:10 /dev/swapfile

[root@hostname]# swapon /dev/swapfile

swapon: /dev/swapfile: swapon

failed: Invalid argument

[root@hostname]# swapon -a

[root@hostname]# free -m

total       used       free

shared    buffers     cached

Mem:          7872       4088       3784          0          7       3969

-/+ buffers/cache:        111       7761

Swap:            0          0          0

2)解决方法：

[root@hostname]# mkdir /swap

[root@hostname]# dd if=/dev/zero

of=/swap/swapfile bs=1M count=4096

4096+0 records in

4096+0 records out

[root@hostname]#  du -sh /swap/swapfile

[root@hostname]#

[root@hostname]# ls -l  /swap/swapfile

[root@hostname]# mkswap  /swap/swapfile

总结：出现这样的错误，主要还是自己对linux的理解不够透彻。对linux每个目录的作用没有完全理解。
