I think that we can move the swap partition at the first place without
any problem, it's a good and simple solution... but the OOM problem is
quite strange. Are you using the default BOEL kernel or UYOK? (anyway
the problem seems to be in e2fsprogs more that in the kernel... maybe we
could also try to move to e2fsprogs-1.39).
