Adding Swap

I am running a Dec Alpha (DU 3.2) and I am trying to install Oracle and the
install keeps running out of swap space. (it gives the message that it is
below 10% and then says it is out of space then it just quits the install).
Is there a way to add room to the swap partition that is not destructive to
the data that is presently on the drive. I see in the man page for SWAPON
that DU does not support paging or swapping to a regular file, so I am out
of answers.

Thanks,
