You have a swap partition? If so, make sure the appropriate entry is
in /etc/fstab. Here's mine from an LVM-based system:
/dev/sys_vg/swap_lv swap swap defaults 0 0
And one from a non-LVM system:
LABEL=SWAP swap swap defaults 0 0
The /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit script that's run at startup should find it
and turn on swap automatically. rc.sysinit also uses "blkid" to try
to find swap partitions ("blkid -t TYPE=swap...") and activate them.
