Having a swap partition makes a huge difference on my computers, but yours is brand new, John, so it might be all right. Look at the info for mkswap for how to do it with a file.
I don't think I'd want somebody who didn't know linux doing my installation unless I could supervise them. Next time you might consider putting a request out on madlug; maybe somebody from the user's group would be willing to come and help. but of course I'm sure you are hoping there won't have to be a "next time" in the near future!!!
I did a successful sarge installation using brltty with a cd I made from the first in the official weekly sarge sets but have only mentioned it on debian-accessibility because it's not really done correctly. I just added brltty to the regular and 2.6 initrds so you have to switch consoles and start it after boot. Also I'm the only one who has used it and it's definitely a hack on my part and not a skilled debian build but it was ok for my purposes.
