Enable swap partition on chromebooks so they have 8GB total ram

[ck2qsuZT]

Swap is a space on the hard drive that can be used as RAM (Random access memory) it is not as good as actual RAM but it is okay/better than nothing the chromebooks only have 2GB of ram which is not enough for more than a few tabs at a time, leading to the common computers crashing, so if we add 6GB then there will be 8GB of ram which should be more than enough.

How to enable swap on a chromebook:

1. Enter the shell by typing ctrl+alt+T
2. Type in swap enable xxxx where xxxx is the number of MB to allocate to swap (if there are 2GB of ram then we would enable 6000 MB of swap
3. If we need to turn off swap then the swap disable command will accomplish this
