You can't, you have to create a swap file somewhere on the filesystem
(assuming bash):
dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapFile count=4096 bs=$(((16000000*1024)/4096))
mkswap /swapFile
swapon /swapFile
"cat /proc/swaps" will show that it's enabled. If you want it to come
up on boot add the following to /etc/fstab:
/swapFile swap swap defaults 0 0
Why do you need 16GB of swap anyways?
