[Bug 1186811] Re: The Ubuntu installation does not create swap partition.

[Lee H]

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.3 (installed from USB), and also get the
`/dev/mapper/cryptswap1 is not ready yet or not present` at bootup. I
tried the steps outlined by tres86dx (and at
http://punygeek.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/ubuntu-1204-how-to-solve-disk-
drive-for.html), yet I the message still persists at bootup.
Nevertheless, if I do `swapon -s` or `free -m` the swap drive does seem
to appear correctly...

Title:
  The Ubuntu installation does not create swap partition.

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Ubuntu installation does not create swap partition. This issue
  happen with both 12.04.2 and 13.04.

  I tested it with two diferents pc and with a virtual machine in
  virtual box into Ubuntu. I tried both automatic and manual
  installation options during installation.

  The partition is created but with errors and the system can not mount
  the partition swap at startup.

  I solved the problem by booting the system from pendrive, then start
  gparted and format the partition again. This worked for several days,
  until it happened again today.

  I include a picture (of gparted) with the problem.
