1. Create a Swap Partition
Open a terminal and list all available disks and partitions:
Lsblk
2
Identify the disk where you want to create the partition (e.g., /dev/sdb).
Use fdisk to create a new partition:
fdisk /dev/sdX
Replace sdX with the appropriate disk.
Inside the fdisk utility:
Type n to create a new partition.
Choose the partition type p (primary or logical).
Select the default partition number or assign one.
Set the size to +100M (for 100MB).
Type t to change the partition type, and set it to swap (82).
Type w to write changes and exit.
4
Inform the OS of partition table changes:
partprobe /dev/sdX
Verify the new partition:

lsblk
4
Format the Partition as Swap
mkswap /dev/sdXn
Replace /dev/sdXn with the full path of your new partition (e.g., /dev/sdb1).
5
Enable the Swap Partition
swapon /dev/sdXn
6
Verify that the swap is active:
swapon --show
7
Make the Swap Automatically Usable at Boot
Edit the /etc/fstab file:
nano /etc/fstab
Add the following line at the end of the file:
/dev/sdXn swap swap defaults 0 0
Replace /dev/sdXn with the correct partition path.
8
Verify the Configuration
reboot
After reboot, verify the swap is active:
swapon --show
Check the /etc/fstab file for correctness:
cat /etc/fstab
