Ok. Then you really don't have an LVM-managed swap partition. In a
previous post, I think Gparted said that your swap partition was
actually /dev/sda2. If that's the case, try "swapon -v /dev/sda2"
and see if that works. If it works, then change your /etc/fstab entry
from
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0
to
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
That should activate (at least) the raw swap partition. As far as the
one under LVM control, I'm a bit stumped. Have a look at the output
of "lvdisplay" and see if that /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 shows up in
there.
