sudo fallocate -l 16G /swapfile
# if failed fallocate try
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1G count=16

# then
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile

# Make it permanent
echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab
# test it

Zip File¶

Note:

The -r option stands for "recursive" and tells zip to include all files and subfolders in the specified folder.
If you want to exclude certain files or folders, you can use the -x option followed by the file or folder name. For example:

zip -r myfolder.zip myfolder -x myfolder/excluded_file.txt
