Config options to define the required size and max size, for instance in /etc/default/dphys-swapfile, with sensible defaults created at install time would be very welcome. Personally, I'd rather leave the actual swap creation to the user (leave the script disabled by default and warn me), instead of blindly creating the file. Detecting the available disk space and bail out complaining if not enough is available would be sensible nonetheless, in case I'm so clueless not to do a "df -H" before running setup.
