We've seen the same symptom on a Dell PowerEdge 1550. In our case, we upgraded the RAM from 768 MB to 2 GB without increasing swap space. We only have 1 GB of swap. I assumed that this was part of the problem since the boot messages had something to do with swap or virtual memory. This has not been a priority problem for us, so we've not perused it further. Please let me know what you find though as we will eventually want to get this box back up. :) David C.
