Re: Hang after enabling swap space

You will think this is the craziest thing. I just keep restarting the 
computer and suddenly after it waited for couple of minutes it moved 
forward. I got some error message such as ERROR ..... (maybe somethign 
about deadlock broken)??? and then it loaded.

I don't have explanation for this, before the computer ws running for 
more than an hour and was hung on the enabling swap space.

Any idea what is going on?
