I'd like to join this issue. Here's what happened to me. Some unexplained phenomenon hammered my swap partition, so it lost its UUID. My system simply booted without incident or warning -- but also without any swap!
mount and swapon, run from command line, complained that the UUID was invalid. One could argue that this is the price of UUID-based fstab mounts; how the heck should the system know that the dangling UUID once pointed to some unused partition on the disk. Aside from that, I would like to have been yelled at for the fact that my fstab contained an invalid swap mount line, even if it couldn't have given me a ton of help in recovering from the problem. Further, I could imagine some sort of maintenance tool that would look at the partition table, find a lonely, under-appreciated swap partition, and offer to rehabilitate it. -- finding a lost swap partition? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/165316 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
