multiple swap files

[Charles Menzes <charles@lunarmedia.net>]

I found:

[charles@apothecary rc.d]$ grep -i swap rc.*
rc.sysinit:# Start up swapping.
rc.sysinit:action "Activating swap partitions" swapon -a
rc.sysinit:# Right, now turn on swap in case we swap to files.
rc.sysinit:swapon -a >/dev/null 2>&1
rc.sysinit:action "Enabling swap space" /bin/true

However, I am not certain where this is pulling information for what fs is
swap. If it is /etc/fstab, then I am still confused why the redhat install
didnt include the second partition I set up as swap space.
If I manually added another mount point defined as swap within fstab, will
there be any additional configuration necessary? Will swapon need to be
manually enabled, or does teh rc.sysinit file read the /etc/fstab file for
any fs marked as swap?
