Tim,
Must not have copied the whole line.

Cheetah:~# cat /proc/swaps
Filename                                Type            Size    Used   
Priority
/dev/sda5                               partition       2650684 0       -1

I Got this when I ran '# s2disk' as root:
s2disk: pm_ops->prepare failed, using 'shutdown mode = shutdown' . Reason:
Inappropriate ioctl for device
s2disk: Snapshotting system

System went sort of dead.  Had that error at the top of the screen with a
flashing cursor.  However I was not able to get it back.  Used another
computer to search the net, didn't find anything that looked like what I
had.  Pressed the power button, and the machine turned off.  Pressed the
power button again, and it came back up.

Checked to see if there were any errors printed to log:

Cheetah:~# cat /var/log/messages | grep s2disk
found nothing...

Digging through the log, I found the beginning of the next boot mesages. 
The last thing in /var/log/messages before that boot was the following:

May 21 19:53:38 localhost -- MARK --
May 21 20:04:50 localhost kernel: Freezing cpus ...
May 21 20:04:50 localhost kernel: CPU 1 is now offline
May 21 20:04:50 localhost kernel: SMP alternatives: switching to UP code


Regards,

Matt
