I had a similar experience installing the Dapper Live CD on a PPC iMac. See:

In fact I had to turn on the swap manually before installation and even so the installer turned off the swap during execution of partitioning bringing the system to freeze due to too little memory. I had to to the following trick on the Live CD ramdisk to make it work for me:

cp /bin/true /sbin/swapoff

I have no idea why the installer turned off the already working swap, either a bug or poor design.
