The latest linuxrc (version 2.1.25) can create swap partitions and swap
files now. If you're going for swap files, you have to watch out not to
reformat the partition later yourself.

To give it a try even if you have lots of RAM, boot with 'addswap=-1'.

Swap file size is 1024 MB or whatever you pass with swap.size=N (N = size 
in MB).
