Updating partitions.
We need to edit /etc/fstab and add the new swap partition.
sudo nano /etc/fstab
We need to add a line that looks like
UUID=735b3be3-779c-4d21-a944-b033225f3ab4 none swap sw 0 0
The UUID can be got using the command
sudo blkid /dev/sdaX
---------///
We can format this partition with:
sudo mkswap /dev/sdX
replacing the X with your partition number. Mount this partition as swap with
sudo swapon -U UUID
If you want to use your swap for hibernating then you need to update the UUID in
/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
with this content RESUME=UUID=xxx.
Don't forget to
sudo update-initramfs -u
