Partitions inside partitions - interesting partition setup. ;)
You just have to initialize the swap partition running:

  mkswap /dev/hda1p3

grml will detect and use the swap partition then automatically.
If not, make sure there's an swap-entry in /etc/fstab like:

/dev/hda1p3 none swap defaults 0 0
