Yes, it certainly does.
You probably should follow the setup guide for SlugOS; the link you
posted in your original email is quite dated (so old that it refers to
"OpenSlug" still!):
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/SlugOS/InstallandTurnupABasicSlugOSSystem
Among other steps, this wiki article shows you how to create a swapfile
(which avoids the hassle of partitioning a thumb drive in the first place).
