	FreeBSD 5.x and 5.0 - RELEASE
>Description:
	Even though there appears to be more than enough RAM on modern
	machines for the install to complete without a swap partition,
	it still refuses to install unless you allocate a swap partition.
	This is particularly annoying if your swap partition is going to
	be on an extended slice.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to isntall without creating a swap partition.

State-Changed-Why:  
The complaint is no longer valid; you are no longer forced to create a 
swap partition.  Thanks for the report, I can imagine this was pretty 
annoying!
