This is normal. Basically, it says that it is about to check the swap file to see if the previous shutdown was via suspend, and hence the boot up might need to resume the previous session.

I have same prob: on 2nd disc I have a FreeBSD partition & a non-label

I guess we just have to be patient and wait for an update to the relevant rpm
before we can use FC8. Else disconnect the drive in question till you
need to use it. Me, I am holding off for now.

Check for the swap entry in /etc/fstab. Usually it gets created with and mounted by label eg:
LABEL=swap    swap       swap    swap        0  0

But if you are sharing the swap partition with another OS, it might be trashing the label ? In that case you could change the fstab to mount by /dev/sdXy

You can also try comment the line out of swap with #; you might have enough ram to ~not care ;)
