Re: NBD swap

Hi Alkis, 

finally I've local swap working but unfortunately this doesn't solve my
problems! 

Firefox, Chromium and OpenOffice sometimes crashes suddenly, without any
reports. 

My Atom Fat Clients without LTSP work properly. 

I think I've to move reluctantly to local installation for my
classrooms! 

In any case thank you very much for your help on this project! 

...I'll continue testing...
