That's one of the benefits of the live CD approach in this case.
I found that a cheap USB HD works well in such a scenario. OK, it works fine until your $29 4G drive starts getting flaky and the people who sold you the item don't have a replacement so you settle for a flash drive, which works for regular data, but not as a swap partition. So if you could spend a bit more than $29, you could carry your swap partition around with you and maybe even have some space left to store some of your files more frequently used files. Good luck -Juergen
