How would I adjust my maximum swapfile size?

From Win 98 help:

To reserve disk space for extra memory

to open the System Properties dialog box at the Performance tab.
Click Virtual Memory.
Make sure Let Windows manage my virtual memory settings is selected.
Notes
You can also open the System Properties dialog box by clicking Start, pointing to Settings, clicking Control Panel, and then double-clicking System.
Whenever possible, let Windows manage your virtual memory. Windows chooses the default setting based on the amount of free hard-disk space. The swap file then shrinks and grows dynamically based on actual memory usage.
If you need to specify a different disk or set limits on the minimum or maximum reserved space, click Let me specify my own virtual memory settings, and then enter the new disk in Hard disk or enter values (in kilobytes) in Minimum or Maximum.

The part that confuses me is:
set the minimum swap file size to the maximum size Windows would select during my typical work session

PMS Witch,
Windows selects all empty hardrive space as the max. size,
doesn't it?
