Even though the swap partition exists, and set to load in fstab, it's still not being mounted.
fdisk... PLUS
Even though the swap partition exists, and set to load in fstab, it's still not being mounted.
fdisk returns this for the swap partition:
file system: /dev/sda5
start: 1
end: 244
blocks: 1951744
id: 82
system: Linux swap / Solaris
and in my fstab it says
file system: /dev/sda5
mount point: none
type: swap
options: sw
dump: 0
pass: 0
and I can load it fine with swapon /dev/sda5 but it just won't load at boot.
Is there more information that I can give to help troubleshoot? I dont know what other info could be useful
As requested, full fstab file:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
/dev/sda6 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/sr1 none udf rw,noauto 0 0
I was looking at the system log and I saw this, not sure what it means or if it's normal but:
Apr 29 17:57:24 caelan-ubuntu os-prober: debug: running /usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests on /dev/sda5

This is going to sound stupid, but try it: reorder /etc/fstab to put the swap partition last.
It seems that mountall -v fails harmlessly when run as NON-root user, and its output can be used to diagnose why mountall doesn't work right at boot. Your last line...

Thank you for your question. As I was looking at it, I discovered that my system had the same problem as yours after upgrading to Natty, yesterday. I believe the problem is that the UUID of the swap partition changed during the upgrade. Here is how I fixed...
Answer 3 of 7
My /etc/fstab (Debian) has the following content:
UUID=7b533ab9-cb87-4a30-a4d8-689788f21985 none swap sw 0 0
Yours should have that line based on what you told us about your config:
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
I wonder why as a beginner in...
Answer 4 of 7
I don't have any quick answer, but I poked around and found some things you could check to try to narrow down the problem:
• /etc/fstab(5) should list swap partition (yours looks fine afaict)
• /etc/init/mountall.conf should include the line emits...

I had a similar problem on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise), but my /etc/fstab was already correct. It turns out that there was something broken about the format of my swap partition that prevented blkid and mountall from detecting the swap partition.

Answer 6 of 7
After the upgrade to 12.04, certain little anomalies occurred, no biggie. I was unaware my swap partition wasn't working until I tried to Gimp a 14 megapixel jpg from my Olympus e330. Yikes.

After UUID:
# Turn off swap

Hi all,. I've been using Ubuntu for a year, and now I've switched to Arch, mainly because Ubuntu is GNOME-dependant and 80% of the software I use is made for KDE and Kubuntu has the worst package managing I've seen in a KDE distro.
