Hi.

The mount helper for the bash completion does not skip the swap partitions in fstab. They are already "mounted" (i.e.  activated automatically during the bootstrap) but the mount helper still proposes them as possible candidates.
In my fstab these entries are of the "classic kind" /dev/sdaX and such. I don't know if using the UUID style would make any difference but I couldn't use it anyways because I use hibernation and when it screws up sometimes I need to call a mkswap and that would change the UUID of the swap partition and I would need to edit the fstab each time.

Thanks
John
