Yes still an issue in 3.7.4, ran into this several times.

You are in fact not creating the swap nor are you turning it on. You
appear to have manually modified the initial disk layout portion
parted -s -- $DISK0 mkpart primary linux-swap $START_MB $END_MB ||
shellout" by adding the linux-swap statement as it's left out.. Ran
into this against any image that was initially created with kickstart
actually..
You need to add a statement before ###END swap blah blah blah, that
looks like.the following. I've actually just started using the Dev,
since I was tired of my systemimager failing towards the end and not
rebooting, since it thought there was an error "No SWAP-hda2 could be
found blah blah..
logmsg "mkswap -v1 -L SWAP-hda2 ${DISK0}2 || shellout"
mkswap -v1 -L SWAP-hda2 ${DISK0}2 || shellout
logmsg "swapon ${DISK0}2 || shellout"
swapon ${DISK0}2 || shellout
Sorry folks took some time away from systemimager, need to get back
into it, test some more things for Andrea and get me to 100%, still no
there with various hda --> sda images.
