[CentOS] swap labeling annoyance

I just upgraded a blade server via rsync from another server. Rebuilt the initrd. It boots fine... except that it won't turn on the swap partition. Several times, I've made sure swap was off, then mkswap -L SWAP-sda3 /dev/sda3, but when I do swapon -L SWAP-sda3, it complains it can't find the devic

Thanks for all the pointers. I've downloaded the driver sources and compiled/installed them, and the serial ports appear to be available upon reboot (according to dmesg). I'll look into building it with DKMS to make it easier to support with future updates. Thanks again, Alfred
