I wonder. Is mount order deterministic at boot? Is it possible that
you're trying to activate the swap files before the underlying file
systems are mounted?

Yes, that's an issue ... there's two swap files.  One is on the root dir
and that one is the only one that came up active when I started the
system this morning.

The other one is on a mounted fs.  Earlier, I'd had it on the following
line to that fs, and as an admittedly feeble attempt, I moved that
swapon to the bottom of the file - who knows if those lines are
processed sequentially.  But it didn't help.

But, the thing is, the swap partition is also not mounted by its fstab
entry.  That wouldn't need an fs to be mounted.

As a workaround you can add swapon -a to local.start ...
