Fedora tries to mount deleted swap partition which is not in fstab or systemd












0















When creating a new swap partition in Fedora 29 to enlarge it I removed the old one using GParted and removed their respective entries in /etc/fstab. I created new entries for the new swap partitions which work as intended.



However, the system still tries to mount the old partition at startup even though it is not in /etc/fstab - until it times out eventually.



The service also doesn't exist for any entry of systemctl status
. I also have tried to run



systemctl reset-failed
systemctl daemon-reload


But to no avail. The following is the content of my fstab file:



# /etc/fstab
# Created by anaconda on Wed Nov 28 22:29:31 2018
#
# Accessible filesystems, by reference, are maintained under '/dev/disk/'.
# See man pages fstab(5), findfs(8), mount(8) and/or blkid(8) for more info.
#
# After editing this file, run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to update systemd
# units generated from this file.

The following is from /var/log/boot.log

    Did you update grub with the new swap partition?

  • specifically, any reference to the old uuid in cat /proc/cmdline ? if so, fix should be to edit /etc/default/grub, and then "Changes to /etc/default/grub require rebuilding the grub.cfg file as follows"
