i've just switched from XP to ubuntu, and i've made some partitions, like efi, /home, swap, and root. For me it is pretty good OS, but when i checked the partition, i noticed that the swap partition on the off condition, so i tried to activate it, and then this message showed up ; swapon failed : device or resource busy. So, what does it mean by that? hope can find help for this question

This answer on serverfault worked for me:

#: swapoff /dev/sda2
#: mkswap /dev/sda2
#: swapon /dev/sda2enter code here

Then check it with

#: lsblk
