Make a partition on the second drive using fdisk, and tag it as a linux
swap partition (82, I think).
Put the linux swap header on it: mkswap /dev/hdc1
Edit /etc/fstab and change the swap line to use this new partition.
The change will take effect the next time you reboot. To make it take
effect immediately:
swapoff -a
swapon -a
Now you can do whatever you like with the old swap partition.
