Hello.
I have just changed to a new hard disk:

Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 77545 cylinders

Nr AF Hd Sec Cyl Hd Sec Cyl Start Size ID
1 00 1 1 0 15 63 65 63 66465 83
2 00 0 1 66 15 63 1023 66528 77952672 83
3 00 15 63 1023 15 63 1023 78019200 146160 82
4 00 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00

The 3'rd partition is a Linux Swap,
/dev/hdc3 77401 77545 73080 82 Linux swap

but swapon -a gives
swapon: /dev/hdc5: Invalid argument

its a 40Gb hd seagate ultra ata.

Is there any issue with them? (dont think so, since the other partitions
work ok). its a 2.4.17 .

ps. I dont know if i might be missing some kernel module.
