Swap is supposed to be 1.5 times RAM, unless you have a lot of RAM.
(I don't use swap if I have over 64MB RAM).
BL3 will use much less space than BL2 because for BL3 Steven picked out
just the required pieces instead of whole packages.
You can delete all the man pages (you have broadband, look online).
And doc, and info, and timezone (/usr/share/zoneinfo).

I do this all the time to connect to my router.
You can put this in rc.S (or rc in BL3) along with the network module
(insmod 3c58x).
And removepkg tcpip1 to make more space.
I have about 75MB of BL3 including several versions of links2, lynx,
opera, sound, svgalib, and much more.
