The swap is created automagically at boot. No user input a this
stage. This is an automatic process.
But Linux support multiple swapping. You still can create

I introduced the feature primary for the muLinux booting from
the CDROM. In the case, I can shutdown the feature for the EXT2
incarnation, because it is used only by experts, thus they know
how to setup theyr swap.

The next release is very giantic, as far the easy useability:
dialog wizards and web form.
I just developed a new web gateway: an Audio CD-ROM player.
You can play CD on muLinux using netscape.
