Note to self: Swap and EC2

2012-01-11

Note to self:

Create a swap partition after launching a micro-instance.

sudo /bin/dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap.1 bs=1M count=1024
sudo /sbin/mkswap /var/swap.1
sudo /sbin/swapon /var/swap.1

You’ll need it.

I’m currently working on fyra.sh, a CLI-first static site deployment tool where you push your site and it’s served globally through a built-in CDN, without the overhead of heavy platforms.
