Don't worry, since a swap size of 32 MB means that you will use about 65
cylinders (if I did my math right :-). Just put swap at the end of the drive.
The booting issue really depends on your bios. As I understand it, the
latest and greatest BIOSs shouldn't have a problem. It seems that with some
BIOSs you can't even tell it to boot anything other that the first two
hard drives. I can boot from hda, hdc or hdd (hbd is the cdrom). I read
the instructions about only making one of the first two drives the bootable
Linux drive AFTER I had installed 4.2 :-) Too late, it was already working.
