I've not probed it but... could it be that you create a swap partition
before do the rest?... you could boot the system with a linux boot
disquette with fdisk and create the partitions before installation
process...
Excuse my poor english, i think rafael may understand spanish:
Lo que digo es que trates de crear una partición de swap antes del
proceso de instalación y luego usarla durante dicho proceso, creo que
podrías hacerlo aunque no lo he comprobado en la práctica (falta de
tiempo). Bueno, un saludo y suerte con ello.
