I get the error message

	Unable to find swap-space signature

on bootup. This doesn't make sense to me, because

1) /etc/fstab contains the line

/dev/hda5       none            swap    sw              0       0

and

2) 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda' returns, in relevant part,

/dev/hda5           76528       77520      500440+  82  Linux swap / Solaris

Should I worry about the error?
