Swap partition

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Attempt to install KDE Neon;
2. Choose "erase disk".

OBSERVED RESULT
A swap partition appears in the disk consumption bars. Calamares show a dropdown menu to enable the swap partition in distros like Manjaro, but that doesn't happen in Neon.

Thank you for your bug report! 
However this bug report was created/provided previous to 01/01/2023 and also has not received any updates since  before 01/01/2025. 
Unfortunately KDE neon no longer provides updates for anything older than noble 24.04 based edition's.
Please upgrade to KDE neon noble and if you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to an active version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
Thanks for understanding!
