Public bug reported:

I had Feisty installed.
I installed Gutsy on a new partition, sharing /home and  /swap.  I let Gutsy 
reformat /swap on installation.

Gutsy works okay, but Feisty fails to boot due to the /swap now being
unusable.

I suspect it got a new ID assigned, which Feisty's /etc/fstab no longer
finds.

Solution would be ... ? maybe just documentation, or a warning against
reformatting /swap (does one ever need to?)

** Affects: Ubuntu
     Importance: Undecided
