And let me guess... they didn't publish the sources anywhere (violating the
license in the process)? If not, download the sources and hop into make
config to find out if they really were such massive assholes as to disable
the swap device (which, honestly, I don't even think the kernel config has an
option for that, but I haven't been inside there for a while so I'm probably
wrong).

Do you at least have a mkswap command? Can you invoke 'swap on'?
