Hi!

I am very very sure you did not face any problem with the swap space!

You should remind that from time to time (depends on how you set this up
per partition) on bootup your Fedora system will run a full fsck
process. That means after X days or Y mount processes each partition
will be fully filechecked to assure file system integrity. The whole
process of fsck will last some minutes, the bigger your partitions are
the more time it takes.

Unfortunately the graphical boot does not tell you what's happening, so
you might think something hangs. But as I explained, it is a regular
health check. Keep in mind that some day you will see that happening
again ... then just be patient and get a cup of coffee ;)
