ok, now for the swappy goodness.. i hope? but need a little help here...
i did:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/1024Mb.swap bs=1M count=1024
then
sudo mkswap /mnt/1024Mb.swap
browsed to my mnt folder and put that file on my fat formatted (via ubuntu, hopefully fat32, didn't say..) USB drive.. since onwards in the how to i found it said "ok, now to mount the swap file!" but i stopped before that. only did what i said earlier in the post.
i have to redownload your image(s) since they were on a laptop that i was going to format and reinstall (in progress ATM)
but am i good to go now?
sudo gedit /etc/fstab then the relevant port?

if i get no reply in time, i'll ofc just try it hope for an answer! thanks for the image\how-to so far!
