Many thanks to: John Kohl <jtk_at_atria.com> and Dr. Tom Blinn
<tpb_at_zk3.dec.com> for their quick and most similar answers.
To quote Dr. Blinn: "There is only one swap policy in effect per system --
"eager" or "lazy"." Thus if the /sbin/swapdefault link exists when the
system boots, "eager" mode applies, no matter how many how many swap areas
exist (which makes great sense). Once again thanks for the help!
