== Minimum Alpine partition scheme ==

This section mentions that swap partition is needed... Is this true for the current alpine setup scripts? Can alpine be setup without swap? Or perhaps with a swap file instead? If the setup script allows no swap or swap file, the statement about swap partitions being mandatory should be removed.

:My comments on this:
:* If you run <code>setup-disk</code> with the <code>SWAP_SIZE</code> environment variable set to 0 (i.e. <code>SWAP_SIZE=0 setup-disk</code>), then the script won't create any swap.
:* As far as I can tell, a swap partition isn't mandatory (for example I've set up a VM that uses the entire disk without partitioning, the VM software handles loading the kernel so there's no bootloader either).
:* Also, it should be '''scheme''' instead of '''sheme''' (missing the 'c')
