See my previous post, I think we are talking about 2 different things.
The installer asking to turn on swap is normal. The 0.7.1 updates allow
you to do it manually _before_ the disks are partitioned. (provided the
partitions already exist.) Another possibility, and I have not tried, is
you may be able to run fdisk, mke2fs, and mkswap from VT2 as soon as the
updates are read in.
The 0.7.1 fset.py file is a brutal hack, applying a sledgehammer to the
anaconda error checking.
But, it may help. ;)
