[SOLVED] SWAP turning off

[Nibiruet]

I recently turned off the SWAP partition to try and see if I could increase its size from an adjacent partition. Finally deciding not to do so I turned it back on.

Since then every time I reboot the system I get an error message and when I finish the boot process and check via GParted the SWAP partition is turned off and I have to manually turn it on.

Any possible fix?

Running Kubuntu v.9.10 x64 with all updates.

Re: SWAP turning off

If you fiddled with the swap partition, the uuid may have changed.

You can get the right uuid for /etc/fstab with:

sudo blkid | grep swap

It was in fact the changed UUID which was messing things up. Changing it fixed the problem.

Thanks for both suggestions, appreciate it.
