[Bug 709363] Re: swap partition disappeared during installation

[alfabravoteam]

In my case, the swap partition appears as not active (in gparted). Yet
if it gets set to  swapon, it never gets used during activity (even if
physical memory gets pretty used up).

The /etc/fstab file shows no UUID for this partition but

  /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0

Also I checked the option "encrypt home folder" during instalation (i
did a clean 11.04 installation last night and then did update-manager -d
to 11.10). Maybe it's related to that.

Finally, if some extra info is needed to diagnose the problem, please
ask and I'll try to help out.

  swap partition disappeared during installation

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  I noticed that I had no swap mounted, looked in /etc/fstab and see a
  swap partition but it isn't usable because the partition has no UUID.
  Reading /var/log/installer/syslog the partition was used at one point
  in time but then stopped being used.
