Re: linux native partition *newbie question*

[Brian <eith cs wisc edu>]

First you need to set aside the partition (this is verry dangerous if you
have anything on the hardrive you want to keep...  Read up on fips if
needed)  Once you have the partition set aside you simply need to change
it to Linux Swap.  I believe you can do this during the install by
clicking edit when the list of partitions are on the screen.
