Hi Mallik

Welcome on linux & fedora world !
During the boot sequence, this message appears when you're using a standalone
machine and if you don't have configured correctly sendmail.
"Enabling swap space [OK]"
means this step is OK, otherwise you would have read :
"Enabling swap space       "
and in your case you are waiting for about 10mn , with concern the next
step in the boot sequence which is sendmail !

So I advice you to correct the long timeout in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
or if you don't use this sendmail:
chkconfig sendmail --level 2345 off

Cheers !
