Here it is again: [chippy@ophth-bilora ~]$ cat /etc/fstab # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 /dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sys /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 LABEL=SWAP-hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows ntfs ro,umask=0222 0 0 /dev/hdb /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 I'm going to try what Michael Warfield suggested: mkswap -L "SWAP-hda6" /dev/hda6 I'll reboot and report back.

Hi Rick Bilonick! To me it looks like you could use Michael H. Warfield's suggested: "mkswap -L SWAP-hda6 /dev/hda6" to replace the make swap statement currently in rc.sysinit, ; or; /dev/hda6 none swap sw 0 0 could replace the swap line in fstab. Either would probably work. Both should survive boot. Good hunting! Tod -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
