problem after reboot..

[acidburn]

everything seemed to install just fine. after rebooting as it was loading the kernel it came up and said cannot fond /dev/swap.
i get a command prompt to fix it or can hit ctl+d to boot normaly. was currious if anyone else has seen this. it seems to load X and kde fine but i get the arror of no /dev/swap everytime i reboot.

You have to alter /etc/fstab and change /dev/swap to whatever your swap partition is (mine is /dev/hda6 for example)

[acidburn]

i didn't think of changing it in /fstab but should i have to when i set it as swap whne i initially installed it??

[chris_r]

mkswap formats it as a swap partition and swapon will initialize the swap for that session so you should edit fstab to make it automatically initialize swap at boot time
