It seems that the swap space works. I think that the installer
reinitialized the swap partition after giving you the message.
Do you still receiving the message thet the swap partition can not be
enabled? Do you able to see the swap space in the memory information
given by 'free'?
Anyway, you can disable the swap space with 'swapoff' reinitialize it
with 'mkswap' and enable it again with 'swapon'. It should eliminate the
error you described.
