I don't know about K12LTSP in special, but regarding a swap space enabling 
problem, I'd proceed as follows:

Boot the machine with a cmdline param of init=/bin/bash
mount -o remount,rw /
Edit the /etc/fstab and deactivate any "swap" lines that might be in there, by 
prepending them with a "#" sign
mount -o remount,ro /
reboot

If the machine comes up without problems then, there may be several problems 
with your swap space. For instance, did you check the partition name is 
correct, the swap space has been formatted with mkswap, and the kernel you 
run does support swapping at all (the default ones probably do, but if it's a 
homebrew one, you should check this).

If the machine does not come up fine, it is probably something that is not 
directly related to swap space.
