If you haven't compiled the information about the default swap partition directly into the kernel (e.g. you use the stock kanotix kernel) you have to tell grub resp. the kernel where to find the swap partition. Open /boot/grub/menu.lst and append the following option to the kernel line: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z .... resume=/dev/hdxy where hdxy ist your swap partition.
