Odd, but perhaps they were in that order on the disk. > First of all, it said "VFS: Mounted root (ex2 filesystem) readonly" That's normal. > activating swap... > Unable to find swap-space signature > > then it said the following about 30 times: > ll_rw_block: device 03:02: only 4096-charblocks implemented (1024) That's normal, it's trying to look for your swap on the root partition. Boot it up with something like "linux emergency root=/dev/hda2", change the root partition to read-write with mount -n -o remount,rw / edit /etc/fstab to have swap on /dev/hda3, / on /dev/hda2, change the root back to read-only with mount -n -o remount,ro / then reboot and it should be fixed.
