Attached is a "bad" version of /etc/fstab, in which swap is not enabled.
Note that the only change is that the line for mounting the swap
partition (and the associated comments) were moved away from the end of
fstab. Here also are the results of the same commands above, after
booting with the "bad" version of fstab.
