fdisk read the partition table from the disk, but the kernel data can be seen in /proc/partitions (it is read at boot time) > # swapon /dev/sda1 >says that ..:/dev/sda1: is invalid argument. what about file -s /dev/sda1 ? If "grep sda1 /proc/partitions" shows the expected result, try mkswap /dev/sda1 before swapon /dev/sda1 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
