Hi there,
I would like to change the Vagrant images to use a single partition (xfs) and swap to a file on that partition. This would simplify resizing the OS partition and also adjusting the size of the swap, compared to the current images. Would anyone be interested in testing the images? Please email me off-list for the links. I already had the changes done last month, tested them myself and on CICO but didn't get to wider testing or merging the PR for the monthly release... life is bit complicated lately. :)
The only gotcha with swapping to a file is that you have to create the swap file with dd, as fallocate doesn't work properly on XFS. The experimental images come with a preconfigured swap, so this is only important if you want to change to another swap size.
Thanks, Laurențiu
