[Bug 839118] Re: swap not mounted with mountall unless listed last in /etc/fstab

Looking at the other bugs on mountall, I think this is the same as bug
#730023 - I see that you have another partition configured with "none"
as the mount target.  So it's probably the ordering of these two
filesystems in the fstab that has the effect.

Why do you have a filesystem listed with a mount point of "none"?  It's
a bug in mountall that this fails to work, but that seems like cruft
that shouldn't be there.

   Mountall doesn't swapon with 'ignore'-d swap in fstab

Title:
  swap not mounted with mountall unless listed last in /etc/fstab

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  A swap partition is not mounted on boot, and is not mounted with
  mountall, despite being listed in /etc/fstab, unless the line
  describing the swap partition is the last line in /etc/fstab. This can
  be seen by executing 'mountall -v' with the line describing the swap
  partition at any other point in /etc/fstab: the last line of output
  will appear similar to 'local 4/4 remote 0/0 virtual 12/12 swap 0/0'.

  There is a description of the bug, and the workaround:
