The situation that installation is started from a live cd is not specially
covered currently.
Normal installation do not have swap activated except for two reasons:
1) linuxrc activated it before starting yast because of low memory
2) the user itself activated it for some reason
In both cases yast2 should not simply deactivate it.
I will have a look if the live installer case can be differentiated from the
above two cases. If yes, I will add code that does a swapoff before
removing the partition.
Deactivating all swap on start of partitioner seems to be too harsh.
It potentially needs a long time and could make low mem systems
hang almost forever. Mostly people will reuse their swap or create an
additional swap in unused space (to be able to suspend multiple
systems independently).
So I would assume the case of removal of a swap partition is quite rare.
