Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

And during the load up i get something like udevd-work[114]:inotify_add_watch(6 /dev/sdb1, 10) failed : no such file or directory and that changed to another device as well.System loads up ok but i noticed also that the swap is not being used.
Is your issue actually causing a problem or just reporting an error?
Is your swap not being used and it should or just not being used?
Try to load up something that should make use of swap?
I don't think this will help but I am researching issue around raid in prep for building my first raid system.
If the system is working fine I would just file a bug report.
Add your information to the Ubuntu forums as well it may add more weight to it.
I don't know your set up but i have a Ubuntu box with 1.5 GB ram and it very rarely uses swap, maybe you just don't need it yet!
As a really brutish way of checking the swap load up some virtual machines on the system at one go and see if it starts using the swap?
