If you are sure about /dev/hda6 being your swap, then do the following:

Thank you so much. This solves the problem.
But just for the record, the directory you mentioned should have been
'/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d'. There is no directory called mkinitramfs (at
least on my system). And I did what you have suggested in
'/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d', and it worked.
It remains a mystery why I did not face the problem in Dapper Drake if, as
you say, it was there even then.
Also, shouldn't something be done to ensure that the problem if taken care
of when people upgrade from dapper drake to edgy.
