fdisk command 't' will let you change the type
of partition to Linux swap (or anything else).
BUT, disk druid should have been able to do all this for you
from scratch. Maybe "it thought" you were trying to tell it
to leave the extended partition alone for some other OS.
I'd recommend you go back to the install from scratch option
and reread the installation guide to check
that you haven't left anything out.
Is the etherlink III the only eth card on your machine? I have had
some difficulties getting a second 3com card recognized automatically
but that can be fixed later.
