I compiled today's 2.4 kernel from CVS. Swap on IDE HD doesn't work. I got

# mkswap /dev/hda3
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 512060K
# swapon /dev/hda3
swapon: /dev/hda3: Invalid argument

and kernel reported

Unable to find swap-space signature

BTW, it used to work fine.

After switching to 2.4.19 with

# cvs update -A -r linux_2_4_19 -dP

swap works fine.
