Hi, Group:
I followed the advice of several list members (thanks) but the result
was disappointing. A synopsis of what I've done appears below?

====================================================
In /var/log/boot.msg, there's a line that says 'failure to find swap
space signature.' Would it help to go to Partition Magic 6.0 and
re-format the swap space as file system ID 82?
Any ideas, anyone?
