To add 512MB more SWAP to your system..

cd /usr
dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swap0 bs=32m count=16
chmod 640 swap0
chgrp operator swap0
pico /etc/vntab
   /dev/vn0c       /usr/swap0      swap
then vnconfig -ae

add:

if [ "X${vnconfig_enable}" = X"YES" ]; then
        echo -n ' vnconfig';            vnconfig -ae
fi

to /etc/rc.local
