Are you sure that swap is not already in use?  What 'swapon -s' has to
say?

]# swapon -s
Filename                Type        Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sda4                                  partition    8191996 54332    -1


UUID=46dd3a72-50e9-4f43-b024-2e3dc6d35129 swap swap    defaults        0 0

So what to do?  Just # out that swap entry?
Is this a correct UUID? 'blikid' confirms that?

# blikid
bash: blikid: command not found...


If swap indeed is not turned on then I would think that trying to remake
swap with 'mkswap' would be a good idea.  UUID will likely change so
you would have to edit your fstab afterwards (or you may use a label a
mount through that).  In any case try to switch your swap "on" manually
before attempting doing that automatically on boot.

Unfortunately, I will need a more precise set of instructions to carry this out.

Maybe your disk is indeed going bad and that is why you see "read failed
after 0 of 4096 at 4096"?
