swap space on DSL ?


I installed DSL (damn small limux) to an old PC with 32 meg ram, and
two disks each about 1 gig it looks like. Apparently I need swap space
to make it all run adequately. However, one of the disks (hda1) shows
up in cfdisk as having all of the space, the other disk I can mount,
but it is still the old dos format. How can I repartion hda1 under
cfdisk without blowing away the install, or how can I put swap on the
other drive. I googled around a bit, but it's not clear what to do. The
install did not give me any options for partitioning ...
