Package: debian-installer
Severity: minor
I had already partitioned the disk I wanted to install debian on,
and given them the appropriate types (linux, linux swap), so I pretty
much just needed to tell debian-installer what to put on those partitions.
When I selected the swap partition and was given the choice of doing stuff
to it, the choices seemed to be limited to either put a filesystem (like
ext2) on it, or leave it alone, there was no obvious choice of mkswap-ing it.

Never mind, I see the option now. Probably just being half-blind of
