Forking is a process switching to a background run. It splits from the terminal, and forks into the background. What you might do is reinstall the swap partition with mkswap -c /dev/hda1 SizeM or whatever. Then use the swapon command to reactivat it. You might need to use swapoff before trying to use mkswap, if the partition is still active. It happens sometimes, swap partitions that are used alot can get corrupt pages... if it still doesn't work, format the swap partition with bad block checking. Usually it'll mark off areas that can no longer be used. ttyl.
