[opensuse] 12.1 install: activated swap needed for installation

Hello:
I started to install openSUSE 12.1 from a gnome live CD.
The installation started as usual but when I tied to make the
partitions and set mount points (in expert partitioning mode
as I usually do) I could not change one of the swap mounting.
The following message was shown when I tried to edit the given
partition:
"Device /dev/sda5 cannot be modified because it contains activated swap
that is needed to run the installation."
I had to abort installation as I don't want the installer to touch
that hard disk at all. I find it very strange that the installer
tries to modify any part of any disks without the permission of the
user.
1. How can I prevent using that swap by the installer?
2. I find this behavior a serious fault of the installer.
Thanks,
Istvan
