swap signature no valid
hello I've recently changed my HD and can't get back any valid swap partition. with fdisk (and yast1) I've chosen a swap type on a logical partition of my 30Go HD.(I don't think a primary partition is needed for swap) During the boot a /dev/hda5 swapon gives a "swap signature not valid" error. I don't think I have to format it and even yet this option is not valid in yast for this partition. my /etc/fstab files is (as far as I remember, I'm not in front of my computer) /dev/hda1 10Mo /boot (primary) /dev/hda2 5Go /mnt/windows (primary) /dev/hda3 17Go / (primary) /dev/hda4 (extended) /dev/hda5 180Mo swap (logical) Is there any options I've forgoten ? I've got another question : I'm thinking of buying a network card. Are NetGear card ok ? (Any point to the suse supported hardware database would be appreciated) Thanks Yann
