Package: mount Version: 2.12r-19 Severity: normal File: /sbin/swapon I recently upgraded to lenny. Now, during boot, I see red "Failed" text nestled in the middle of a (seemingly unrelated) line. A line or two below that (which I'm assuming is the source of the red "Failed" text), I see
swapon: /dev/hda2: Device or resource busy However, after booting: $ dmesg |grep swap Adding 979956k swap on /dev/hda2. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:979956k $ dmesg |grep -i fail $ Looking at /etc/init.d/mountall.sh, I see: # # Execute swapon command again, in case we want to swap to # a file on a now mounted filesystem. # # Ignore 255 status due to swap already being enabled # if [ "$VERBOSE" = no ] then log_action_begin_msg "Activating swapfile swap" swapon -a -e 2>/dev/null || : # Stifle "Device or resource busy" log_action_end_msg 0 else log_daemon_msg "Will now activate swapfile swap" swapon -a -e -v log_action_end_msg $? fi I don't recall whether I saw "Activating swapfile swap" or "Will now activate swapfile swap" although the former seems more familiar. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (80, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages mount depends on: ii libblkid1 1.40.2-1 block device id library ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libuuid1 1.40.2-1 universally unique id library mount recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
