You really should put the question in the message as well as the
subject. In any case, you can ignore the message, unless you are
planing on hibernating the system. What it is doing is trying to
access a swap partition on /dev/sdc5, and it is not able to do it.

If you want to look into it farther, please post your
/boot/grub/grub.conf and /etc/fstab files.

I have two other disks in the system, one is dual boot xp-pclinuxos
second disk is fedora 7, _64

I am trying to understand the comments in the grub.conf
