Alien 2 Enigma 2 image and swap file creation.

Hi, I am trying to manually create a swap file on my Amiko 2 using an Enigma 2 image(HDMU).
I have followed instructions from master g' (found here:http://linuxsat-support.com/vu…swapfile-vu-duo-solo.html).
These instructions are for a Vu+solo but i thought it might work here because I have no tspanel on the image.(i dont think the Alien2 supports a tspanel function)

It will create the swap file on usb, but when i type the command to activate it i get an error.(saying something like--there is no argument)

Anyone got any ideas?

Is it even possible to create a swap file on an Amiko Alien 2 Enigma 2 image?

Thanks for your quick reply ben361.
I will try your suggestion when i next have to look at the Alien box. It has gone back to its owner...
Just another question .....on following your advice will this give me an option to create a swap file? and if so ...will it be activated on every reboot?
