While virtual disk resized the fstab might be broken
I had no swap in my virtual Linux and it was out of disk space. So I resized the disk and same time, I tried to add 2 GB swap. I am new in Linux world. Something went wrong.
I successfully resized the disk. But now the virtual Linux is very slow to perform all kind of task. Even simple command cd ~ takes a couple of seconds to complete. After trying few Google search I got hints that my fstab might be broken. Here is the content of fstab now:-
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=c864d39e-9cfc-4202-b363-4c58841fa2c3 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/swapfile none swap sw 0 0
I don't know is broken or not. If it is broken how to fix it? If it is fine, then why my virtual Linux is damn slow after disk resized? Also I don't know do I need swap memory for the virtual Linux? What to check and how to fix it?
