Hi Xiang,

I would advise against using such old resources for current research. Using
an OS from a decade ago may not give you results that are accurate for
today's systems.

For "linux-bigswap2.img", this is just an empty disk image that was used as
swap space. You can probably use an empty file and it will probably work.
If that doesn't work, then you could create an empty disk image that is
formatted to be linux swap with qemu.

Cheers,
Jason
