Problem:
with enabling swap space on “Boot Time“.
while Redhat Linux Booting into run level 3 , then it suddenly got struck up with swap space enabling.
Solution:
Boot into single user mode and make sure /etc/fstab has correct entries. Also can format swap partition.
Before formatting swap partition please disable that partition. do(in single user mode):
#swapoff /dev/hda5 (your /etc/fstab entry for swap).
To Create new swap partition do the follow,
step1:
Create new partition by using “fdisk”.Say here “/dev/hdaX”(Also works with deleting old swap partition and recreate it to use original space.)
step2:
Create Swap signature on that partition.to do that,
#mkswap -v1 /dev/hdaX
step3:
Enable swap partition,
#swapon /dev/hdaX
step4:
Check the status of swap partition.
#swapon -s
