Problem: I can't enable 32-bit file access in WFW 3.11, because I can't create
a permanent swap file, because Windows says my hard disk partitioning scheme
prohibits creation of a permanent swap file.

I was able to create a permanent swap file prior to adding Unix, although I
never saw enough improvement in performance to justify giving up the disk
space.  Has anyone been able to create a permanent swap file with a Unix
partition on their disk?

Any and all suggestions or comments welcome.
