Hello Gun,
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile2 bs=1k count=512000
sudo mkswap /swapfile2
sudo swapon /swapfile2

Cek with command: top
See if the memory has been added

Put this into /etc/fstab:
sudo vi /etc/fstab
/swapfile2	  swap    defaults   0 0

Don't edit /etc/fstab if you're not sure how to do it, because if you make a 
typo, you will risk your ubuntu unbootable. Use the sudo swapon /swapfile2 
everytime you need it instead.
