There are 3 swap partitions on the machine 384 MiB each, one on each HDD, and have been for every install.  I set the drives up with GParted before anything else was installed.  Not sure if the installer uses swap though.  I know some don't as some distros insist on formatting swap.  This is a right royal PITA as it changes the UUID and I have to alter it back so the other distros on there don't lose the swap.
