I have 128 MB RAM and I think I dont need for the first time
any swap partitions. And all that I can give to Linux is one
primary disk partition (900MB).
But the insteller think I must have the swap partition.
What should I do?&#137;

This is not a bug in the system.  Disk Druid is set up to require a
swap partition, and this is the restriction that you are running into,
but the system is working as intended.
