Someone else will have to guide you through the commands.
But...
You will be using swapoff to turn your current swap partition
off......fdisk to delete the old swap and remake a new one (hopefully you
have the spare hard drive space to make it bigger).....swapon to turn the
new swap partition on......then change /etc/fstab accordingly.
No need to reboot....Very few changes to your system require rebooting. A
new kernel being one of those.
