mmm....maybe the problem is that the line is repeated (or maybe you just made a mistake when you copied/pasted)
Thanks, after remove the duplicated lines, problem has gone, don't know if the duplicated lines are caused by me setting the mount point twice (i did when installing).
]]>What's your fstab like? Maybe an erroneous swap partition in there?

sounds ok
and free has also normal results?

gives back something intelligent?
something like this is normal:

Network problem solved... Thanks

if not, it is not good --- because then it means that you have no swap running
network:
1) is ok
2) is not needed, if you include eth0 in INTERFACES in /etc/rc.conf
::Activating Swap [Failed]
But the system works, any problem with my installation? anyway to get rid of the red error Failed?
I set up the network by:
1) add 'alias eth0 8139too' in /etc/modprobe.conf
2) run 'dhcpcd eth0'
Any better way to set up network?
Thanks,
