Nope. Apperently that's my problem. I never had any problems with this before,
and I was sure I had added a 96 MB swap. Apperently I managed to delete it,
or something, because I just tried to create a swap and sysinstall told me
the disk was full. :-( Seems like I will have to reinstall the whole thing
again. *sniff* The good news is that I will get XFree86 3.3 then. :-)

Anyway... thanx for your help, everyone. Off to reinstall... *sigh*
