OK, I did "/sbin/mkswap -L "SWAP-hda6" /dev/hda6" and the results after
rebooting:


[chippy@ophth-bilora ~]$ dmesg | grep swap
Kernel command line: ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet

At first I was concerned about the dmesg entries but the free command
shows that swap is on so I assume this fixes the problem. I also ran
some programs that are memory hogs and swap is actually used. Thanks!
