Linux has a "priority" feature for swap areas.
from my fstab:
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
sample:
/dev/MySwapDrive none swap sw,pri=1 0 0
/dev/MyFlashStick none swap sw,pri=2 0 0
(Warning - I haven't actually tried this)
(Warning - Murphy/Finagle's Law: You WILL pull out the swap while the system is
on, and you WON'T put it back in in time to avoid a kernel panic.)
