the only error message is 'activating swap ... failed' during boot. even
dmesg doesn't say anything about it. and after booting losetup -a doesn't
show any loop.
during boot the loop module is loaded a little bit after trying to activate
the swap partition. maybe that could be the reason?! but with a debian
kernel the whole thing works ...
