Hello:
I am having a strange problem after installing FC3 on two machines. On both machines the swap partition did not come up automatically when i booted the machine.
when i do "free" it gives me the following output.
total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 2058472 329424 1729048 0 99224 108404 -/+ buffers/cache: 121796 1936676 Swap: 0 0 0
my /etc/fstab shows the following
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=SWAP-hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t,ro,exec,noauto,managed
0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto pamconsole,fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t,exec,noauto,managed
0 0
i even tried to change the label from SWAP-hda6 to /dev/hda6 but still the same result.
How did you create the swap partitions? Manually, or using the Fedora installer?
Are they formatted?
Paul.
