No -- what does your /etc/fstab file look like?

Thx in advance, but I made a huge stupid mistake:

Is there any way to tell if something failed on boot/shutdown? I was getting this error, but dismissed it because running swapoff -a was working fine fine from the command line... I now have my server sitting in a closet without a monitor attached so I have no clue if it is still giving the !! on shutdown and was wondering if there is a log or something that tells if the service failed.

Thanks,
Beav

that doesn't help one bit since I looked through every log I have and didn't find anything relating to the stuff in /etc/init.d... and dmesg seems to stop right when gentoo starts loading those files
