How can a swap partition be read-only?  How can a disk be used as swap
without overwriting (probably FAT32) partitions on the disk?

It would only mount a swap partition if the type marked was linux
swap previously.  Otherwise it won't use it.

But in the case of low RAM, if a Linux partition is not available, Knoppix uses the Windows partition and creates a swap file (not a swap partition).
