Well, I do not have permission to write to the Install wiki. I think the best
way to handle it is this: after this existing note:


<quote>
Remember to create any stacked block devices like LVM, LUKS, or RAID. Consider
also if you will require swap space for your install. swap is needed for
suspend-to-disk capability and is required by a few applications to run. More
information on swap can be found in the Partitioning link above.

  That is simple enough, it raises the issue and refers the user to where he can
find additional info to guild him.
