Report release number, please. Swep space is automatically created as "file"
in the directory you downloaded the archives. If you can use, instead, a true
dedicated swap partition, then enter in maintance mode and try:

                # mkswap /dev/... ; sync; swapon /dev/...
                # /etc/rc.prep-floppy
