This has nothing to do with memtest or firefox. It happend to me after an dist-upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 with wubi:
Jaunty hangs with the message "Activating swapfile". You can bypass this by pressing ctrl-alt-del. After that the system boots normally. Update of Memtest86+ doesn't work because all wubi disk image file live on a fat32 partition where dpkg can't create an symlink to memtest - maybe that's the clue to the swapfile bug, too. I already tried to create a new swapfile image and put that into fstab, but no success.
