I have used XENIX 3.0 on an Intel 310 computer, and it
is possible to recunfigure the kernel to allow as much
swap space as you want on the hard disk. The files
for such modifications are in places like
"/sys/h" or "/sys/conf/xenixconf". (I'm not exacly sure right
now.) It is possible to recompile the kernel, infact it is
necessary if you install new periferals which XENIX has to
know about. Hope this helps you.
