Nothing to do with these swaps spaces (I took a gander at the /etc/fstab)?

 /wa1/Swap5 ...          
 /wa2/Swap6 ...    

 "I can mount /dev/sdb2 on any mount point except /wa1 and 2)" says the
 OP.

There's also a /wa3/Swap4, so maybe not. I wonder what happens if you
try to mount a partition on ... well.
