100 MB for boot's a bit much, but it's fine. See Charles' post
that /boot can be ReiserFS, ext2,3 /boot is still needed for XFS.
Charles' advice is always to be trusted too.
I use 500mb /swap with 500mb ram, but actually only at least a
250mb /swap is needed. Even when video encoding or recoding 700 to
800 mb movies, I don't get into /swap hardly at all if ever.
