Have you verified via `free -m` if the swap partition wasn't even mounted?
I don't think it is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 249 188 60 0 32 129
-/+ buffers/cache: 26 222
Swap: 0 0 0

An fdisk utility would see if the swap partition exists.
Here is what I get:
Disk /dev/hda: 20.4 GB, 20491075584 bytes 240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2646 cylinders Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 2325 17576968+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 2326 2646 2426760 82 Linux swap
man 8 swapon.
Add an fstab entry to automatically mount it everytime your machine boots up, e.g.: /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
OK I have added this:
# Added by me /dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
And then I do:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/jhiver# swapon -a swapon: /dev/hda2: Argument invalide
Any ideas?
Cheers, Jean-Michel.
