Using the pre-partitioning method with the above hardware and 13.04.
Boot into the Live CD and partition the drive with one Ext4 partition
and a swap partition 1.5 x RAM size, as per the default partitioning,
using gParted. Reboot, as swap isn't seen even using swapon -a.
Installing from the live session and the direct install option crashes
even though swap is being used. So, on this rather slow machine at
least, it looks like the zRAM in Saucy is rather useful.
Lowered the RAM to 128 MiB and the Suacy Live CD still boots and is
usable if somewhat slooow. Can't install with it though. It fills the
swap space up rather quickly.
