5 Megs of swap space seems a little short to ran anything seriously. I'm not
sure 0.1 supporting mkfile <X>meg filename on a filesystem and append that to
the total swap. If that's the case, swap size can be adjusted without fooling
around with re-partitioning the disk. Might take a little performance hit,
though. Anyone has a clue, whether this can be done on 0.1?
