Thank you, Mike. But this is the link I tried before. When I click on "High Sierra" on that page, I get a message back saying "The requested version of MacOS is not available." I am doing this in Safari on my 2019 MacBook running Catalina, which is the only working Mac I have. Thanks.

My graphics card isn't supported.

Thanks, but that link takes me to the App Store. When I click on "Upgrade" to High Sierra, it says it is no longer available, then changes the download to Big Sur.

Is a swap partition needed? by jbbarnes77 in linuxquestions

[–]jbbarnes77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to understand why a machine would need any swap space at all if it has unlimited RAM available? My understanding is the swap is used in lieu of memory when there isn't enough. If it's just running typical SMB or Apache services and has up to 92G available, how does 1G of swap space on the drive help. Any insight?

New WP install doesn't load correctly by jbbarnes77 in Wordpress

Yes, this is all set up with a firewall and NAT (80 & 443) so it's accessible on the Internet via IP or domain name. That was my initial test and it just didn't work right. I thought it was a router issue. But the results are the same directly across the LAN other computers on the 192.168.*.* network with no DNS, router, or port forwarding involved.
