[How to] Enable swapfile on LibreELEC

From @escalade in Remix

By default LibreELEC does not have a swapfile.

You can enable a swapfile by:

cp /etc/swap.conf /storage/.config

then edit it and change

SWAP_ENABLED="no" to SWAP_ENABLED="yes".

SWAPFILESIZE="128" to your required swapfile size - normally 4 x RAM but RAM should be enough for a normal LE system.

When you reboot, a swapfile the size of SWAPFILESIZE is generated in /storage/.config/swapfile.

however, I have not changed the SWAPFILESIZE="128" at first, then I closed the swap and reboot and then modified SWAPFILESIZE="other" and reboot

the swap file recreated still is 128MB, and I follow this guide(https://linuxhint.com/change_swap_size_ubuntu/) try to modify, but it not work:

swapon -s

swapoff -a

dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=256 (can not use dd, say swapfile readonly)

so, how to change swapfile size?
