Description of problem: During the boot the swap partition gives an error/warning - as per the lines in the messages file here: May 4 08:14:44 gestalt kernel: EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. May 4 08:14:44 gestalt kernel: version 0 swap is no longer supported. Use mkswap -v1 /dev/sda7 May 4 08:14:44 gestalt kernel: ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):This happens in the current kernel 2.6.16-1.2107_FC5smp, but also with the kernel that came with the release. How reproducible:Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot machine 2. During boot ( without rhgb as rhgb hangs with this kernel ) just after mkinit there is a red failed line 3. Check messages file to find the warning about swap now needing mkswap. Same line appears in dmesg output. Actual results: Machine continues to boot. Expected results:Boot should proceed without the swap warning. Additional info:This is a freshly installed FC5 system on a Dell 5150 with Intel Core Duo processor. The df -h output looks normal: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda6 19G 5.3G 13G 30% / tmpfs 247M 0 247M 0% /dev/shm /dev/sda8 63G 9.3G 50G 16% /home The /etc/fstab looks normal also: LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/sda7 swap swap defaults 0 0
Created attachment 128589 [details] /var/log/messages starting at the boot today
2107 was *really* bad on so many levels. Should be fixed in 2111.
