Hello, I am confused by a warning from mkswap : When making a swap on a LVM volume, I see the following warning : mkswap: /dev/vg_SDB1/swap_test6_64: warning: don't erase bootbits sectors on whole disk. Use -f to force. Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 1048572 KiB Is it safe to use mkswap -f in this case ? (If that matters, the swap is intended for a virtual machine, and the host where I am using mkswap is a CentOS-6 server.) Thanks, -- Philippe Naudin
