Well, it's definitely not intended behavior :-). A few questions for you:
(1) How much memory does this machine have? How much swap space is
configured at the point where you get to the swapspace failure?
(2) What exactly were the messages you pointed out in the bootup regardin
the load of acpi.ko? Could you provide us with verbose dmesg output?
