Thats set in /etc/fstab, use your fav editor to fix the line
containing /dev/hdb4 by changing it to /dev/hdd4. Then rather that
rebooting, just do a "swapon -a" (without the dblquotes of course,
see the "man swapon" page) which should properly enable it.
Now, one more thing, please fix your quoting in your email agent, it
is not prefixing each line with an additional > character to indicate
the quoting levels, so it looks as if I sent your reply. That gets
confuzing to the other readers of your messages.
Thanks.
