    Hi folks,

    for a while the gremlins have been playing with my PC, and although they seem
    to have gone away now I still have one remaining.

    When I boot up, although I don't see any error messages it hangs for a number
    of minutes when it gets the the 'initialising SWAP space' (I can't remember
    the exact message).

    After this delay, the PC then proceeds as normal and I can use it fine.

    Can anyone suggest a reason for this, and how I can fix it. Presumably I'll
    have to boot in a minimal runlevel, disable, reformat, re-enable swap to fix
    it, but can anyone point be to any docs on how to do this.

    Thanks

    Gary
