Yeah, but changes through fdisk on a mounted volume don't take effect until reboot, no? (Swap space can certainly be enabled while mounted.)

 official RHL customization guide, "adding swap space", reads
in part, to add a swap partition:

 "The hard drive can not be in use (partitions can not be
mounted, and swap space can not be enabled).  The easiest
way to achieve this it [sic] to boot your system in [sic]
rescue mode."

 say what?  i've numerous times added a swap partition to
a running system with a combination of fdisk/mkswap/swapon.
has this changed?
