tried to enable swap, now won't start

I am running GalaxHero 1.1. I tried to enable swap. First, I used the recovery mode and selected format ext. SD card with swap, then i restarted and enabled compcache and set it to 2 (now I see it should have been 0). Then I restarted and I just get the Android splash screen running forever. Can anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks in advance,

 

Not sure how to edit compcache. it appears to be coming up as read only.

 

I can read through the conf. file but can't move up and down to change anything. I tried just typing the commands as you have them (compcache=no) into the shell and nothing happens. when i call up the conf file again there is no change. Am I doing something wrong? Can I find the file and open it with a text editor then save it back again after I edit? Thanks for your help so far...

 

Excellent! Took me a minute to realize that I had to add to the commands where I wanted to copy the file to on my computer, but then everything worked. Instead of turning off the compcache, I just changed it to 0 and then the phone restarted fine. I really appreciate your guidance. Thanks a lot.
