Thanks Sandip. I tried swapon with /dev/hda6. It says: swapon: /dev/hda6: Operation not permitted /var/log/dmesg has the following [17179595.252000] Unable to find swap-space signature [17179597.072000] Unable to find swap-space signature If I do, "sudo mkswap /dev/hda6", it works and then swapon works also. But when I reboot the machine, I am back to the same problem.
