Hi:
Does anyone know the trick in getting around the swap problem ?
The installer says I must add a swap partition before continuing.
The only option is "OK"
Thanks,
Koz

It seems that the swapon is not working at this stage. I press "OK",
too.

After pressing OK, I am back to where I started and it will not let
me continue.
How did you manage to get past this point ?
Thanks for the reply,

I got the same problem when I trying to install it on system disk, I am not sure
if this is the cause. Just for you information.
