Oh! I bet you used partition magic.
Try changing fstab to use hda6 instead of hda5, then swapon -a
You might take a look at /etc/mtab also to see what is mounted.

[root /root]# cat /etc/mtab
/dev/hda1 / ext2 rw 0 0
none /proc proc rw 0 0
/dev/hda3 /var ext2 rw,nosuid 0 0
/dev/hda4 /home ext2 rw,usrquota,grpquota,grpid 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=0620 0 0
Funny, I just went through the whole procedure again with my backup here on all the same equipment - yes, Partition Magic - and it all worked fine.
