I assume the LiveCD looks for swap partitions when it starts and will
try to use them?

Could we make it also notice when it's running on a really
memory-starved machine, and prompt early during startup...

"Your machine has only 256MiB RAM. It will need to use swap.
 Would you like to create a swap partition on your hard drive now?"

Bonus points for being able to use swap on a FAT partition, I suppose --
if you always use the same filename isn't that relatively easy to scan
for at boot? If it's named like a swapfile and it _looks_ like a
swapfile, it's relatively safe to try swapon, right?
