Rule of thumb in case of swap: -Do you use hibernate? swap = RAM*2 -If hibernate is not used, do you have more then 4 GiB of ram? swap = round(√RAM) i.e. 8GiB ram; round(√8) = 3GiB of swap. -If hibernate is not used. your ram is equal or lower then 4Gib, but your ram is equal or higher then 2Gib? swap = RAM -Otherwise, swap = RAM*2

After messing with config files I eventually got it to accept a simple password like I wanted, but I don't even know what I did. In the end I actually got my gentoo system installed and rebooted into it, however I suppose I forgot to install the wireless tools needed to actually connect my laptop's wifi to the internet so I couldn't continue, lol.
