What were you trying to do?

	Check the size of the Sun's swap partition.

What's wrong:

	As far as I can tell, it's about 50M. We decided on about
	100M for the DECstation. Why is it different?

Current partition table (original):
Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders        Size       Blocks
  0       root    wm       0 -   91       32.34MB    (92/0/0)
  1       swap    wm      92 -  228       48.16MB    (137/0/0)
  2     backup    wu       0 - 1150      404.65MB    (1151/0/0)
  3 unassigned    wm     229 -  365       48.16MB    (137/0/0)
  4 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)
  5        usr    wm     367 -  537       60.12MB    (171/0/0)
  6        var    wm     538 - 1146      214.10MB    (609/0/0)
  7 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)

	It looks like we almost, but didn't quite, set the Sun's
	swap partition to 100M. Is this true?

What should have happened:

	Probably a 100M swap partition. Looks like an easy fix...

Please describe any relevant documentation references:

	trb meeting, maybe.
