A different approach is to add a file in the root fs for swap instead of adding a dedicated partition / logical volume. The performance will be somewhat lower than from a partition / lv, but it is much simpler and less risky to add. You can also use the pri=<priority> option in fstab so that the swap partition is used first, and only if that becomes full the swap file is used.
