Glad it worked for you.  I think mkswap did not make the link for me the 
first time I ran it, either.  But it di the second time.  I do know that 
I gave only the device file as a parameter the second time.  The first 
time,  I gave it -c to check the partition for bad blocks. 
Did it survive a reboot?
