Hi Patrick, > Odd, it seems fine here. what version LVM are you using ? 1.0.4 on Debian GNU/Linux 3.0r1 "woody" Some machines have the Debian package from stable (version 1.0.4-4) and some the version from testing (version 1.0.4-6) The problem is identical on all machines: swapoff does not work if the LVM swap device is listed in /etc/fstab, but works just fine if swap on the LVM swap device is started manually with swapon after the system starts.
