LSDK 19.03: How to add swap partition on flex-installer command

[ohara]

I'm trying to install LSDK 19.03 images to 8GByte(7.2GiB) SD card with flex-installer command,

$> flex-installer -b ../bootpartition_LS_arm64_lts_4.19.tgz -r build/images/rootfs_lsdk_19.03_LS_arm64_201904161757.tgz -d /dev/mmcblk0

this command automatically makes three(3) partitions on SD card as follows,

  mmcblk0p1   23.2M /EFI

  mmcblk0p2  1G /boot

  mmcblk0p3  6.1G /rootfs

There is no swap partition.

How to add swap partition on this SD-Card?

See the following page about creation swap partition:

https://www.thegeekdiary.com/how-to-add-swap-space-in-linux/

Draw attention that damage SD card is possible since. SD card can be written approximately only 100,000 times.

Look at also the following pages:
