Hi,
I just found that my fc3 system's swap partition is "gone". When I
installed the system, I set it to 1Gb. The kernel is 2.6.10-1.766_FC3. I
don't know when it started, but here are some information:
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1035748 658792 376956 0 145380 272540

# cat /etc/fstab

I tried this:
# swapon -a
swapon: cannot find the device for LABEL=SWAP-hda7
Your swap partition probabliy doesn't have a label anymore, or it
doesn't exist anymore.
The system log does not show anything related to this problem. Can
somebody tell me what may cause this problem? how to check it further and
fix it?
What is the output from fdisk -l (run by root)?
Thanks a lot!
