Not sure why you would bother with separate /boot and / partitions on a system with only 4GB of mass storage. Just go with a single partition, and limit the installed kernels to two -- current and previous -- to save space.

I didn't even have a swap partition on my 900A when I was using the 4GB flash drive that came with it. but I had 2GB of RAM, so swap wasn't much needed for the kinds of tasks I set that little machine to. Of course, I didn't need hibernation, either.

Never thought of just one partition.  Always ASSuMEd that /boot had to be by itself.  I guess that just a / partition needs to be first and the swap at the end.  I will give that a go.

And how do I change the # of kernels?
