Swap memory

Hi everybody,

I am running Fedora Core 4. When I use the 'free command' I get the following
output:


             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        483196     350104     133092          0      29076     178420
-/+ buffers/cache:     142608     340588
Swap:            0          0          0


>From which it appears that swap memory is not active.

In addition when the system is rebooted I get a warning that "line 10 of
/etc/fstab is bad", or something like this. Line 10 corresponds to swap memory.
It reads as follows:

LABEL==i386 -mcpu=i68   swap                    swap    defaults        0 0


Any hints on how to correct this?

Thanks in advance,

Gustavo J. Mata
