Hello I am trying to install debian (with the ethernet drivers
included) on my slug. I have a 6 gig usb disk. I wanted to do guide
partitioning using the entire disk with separate partitions for /,
usr, var and home. The problem is the installer only created a swap of
98 megs, too small according to
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/install.html . The installer
mentions being able to modify the partitions after it setups up the
recommended size. I deleted my home partition to free up some space
but can't figure out how to grow my swap. Basically I am looking for a
way to have separate partitions and a swap of over 128 megs without
doing everything manually...don't want to screw anything up.

The closest I have come is guided partitioning the entire disk
deleting the swap (which in the middle) and /home (end of disk) and
the creating a large swap at the end of the disk and using the rest
for /home but that leaves with 98 meg hole (unused) in the middle of
the disk.
