DSL does not really have a network script like that, but you could do a "ifconfig eth0 down" and then "ifconfig eth0 up"

Your swap partition will be automatically used if you formatted it (you did, right?)
format it with "mkswap /dev/hda2" if you hadn't already

Well I guess I didn't format it.

I run the mkswap command (boy that ran fast), rebooted, and had my swap drive.

And yes, hda2 from the list.  The wiki advised creating the swap partition at the end of the drive, then using everything in the middle for your /home partition.  Doing it this way, makes swap as hda2.

And I will go off and read the cheatcodes...
