Continue to wait, or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery. Waiting has no apparent effect; M does nothing. Gnome-system-monitor shows swap as not available. Gnome-disk utility shows the partition as inactive and when I Activate it, the swap status changes immediately to available. After a reboot, I get the same message at boot, swap is not available and is not active, according to Gnome-disk. I'm running Xubuntu 14.04 and updates are current. But, I've seen the same message at boot on another PC running Xubuntu 12.04. Luckily, Linux manages memory memory quite well so swap is seldom called into action, and, I don't hibernate - just suspend or shutdown. Solution? </body> </html>
