Hi Marco,

Regardless of the distribution you are using, there should be a program 
called gparted or something similar to it:

http://gparted.sourceforge.net/

I suggest you read the manuals and do it carefully.  gparted can "move 
things over" if your /swap partition expands into something else [as it 
seems most likely the case].  I've done this before.  Follow the 
instructions and, as they always say, *back up first*!  :-)

Good luck and good to hear you fixed your fstab problem!

Ray
