It is very possible that the installer cannot work without creating a separate swap partition. What you might try is using 2 disks. Install normally on to one disk, then copy the installation over to the disk that you really want to use, remove the swap partition from the fstab, and create the swapfiles you want to use. _________________________________________________________________ Getting married?
