Here swapon -s reports the SIZE of the partition (sda11) FOLLOWING the one we
gave swapon -a (sda10)!

Perhaps it is some Logical / Primary partition problem..., but I swear it
scares one into thinking it is about to write into my root partition
(Data Loss!)

/dev/sda11       1071468  368440    648600  37% /
...

I will check how one can use cfdisk to create such a partition table and
report back later.

Also top(1) shows swapon has got the wrong partition too!
