"Sure -- I've got a copy of s4diag that ask how many blocks you'd like
to allocate for swapping" :-) :-)  And so you YOU!  All the versions
of the diagnostic disk allow you to enter the swap size when formatting
is invoked from the EXPERT MODE!

Boot diagnostics floppy:
At the choices prompt type:

-------------
s4test

expert> 6,2<CR>   -or-  2<CR>

...
Enter in the drive type
...

Enter Swap space size in logical blocks?( Default is XXXXX )  <enter the size>
-------------

Note the blocks are 1024 byte logical blocks (ie. 5000 = 5MB)
