    How about trimming 30 MB (1%) off /swap to create a dedicated /boot partition
    (primary) at the beginning of the drive, i.e.:

    hda1 /boot
    hda2 /swap
    hda3 /

    That way, you'd never find yourself unable to boot due to a patch or upgrade
    inadvertently "pushing" the boot files beyond the limit set by your BIOS.
