Sounds like your swap partition (virtual memory partition) is damaged
and can
not be activated. It is relatively easy to recreate a swap partition.
Please take a look at these files:
man swapon
man swapoff
man mkswap
My /etc/fstab entry for the swap partition looks like this:
/dev/sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
My partition is on device /dev/sda3. I would use these commands:
swapoff -a
mkswap -v1 -L swap /dev/sda3
swapon -a
You may have more than one swap area, and one or more may be corrupted.
You can rebuild each of the areas, or all of them, and you can specify
more
parms (you will have to decide by reading the man pages I listed).
Hope this helps you :)
