Subject:   Installation on a 4 meg system -- still having problems after new boot.flp

I just ftp'd the updated boot.flp and am still having difficulty -- the debug
screen tells me that I keep running out of swap space and it is killing 
various processed (such as whenever I try to install, it aborts on the
labeling/newfsing with error 137).  I can't get it installed if it kills the
installation process ;).

Any help would be most appreciated.  Also, just as a technical question -- the
slice manager is showing a >1024 cylinder space on my drive -- can I safetly
use that for either the root partition or the swap partition?  Or should I
use that for some less essential (and less boot-orriented) partition..  The
best partition to use it for (for me) would be swap, if possible.

Thanks for a great product (once I get it installed on this system ;).
