One Caveat: /boot or whatever the /boot directory is in MUST be an EXT2 file system or the kernel will not load!

Yes, but if you make / ext2, then there isn't much left to make journaled! If /archives is a totally separate partition, then on install I would make everything except /archives journalled. (Then once you've moved your stuff back to /home/me, change the fs on /archives to something journalled, too ;-)
