As regarding the partitioning, I would recommend using LVM2. Then no
matter how you might mess up your partitioning in the beginning you can
change it to suit your needs by resizing it on the fly - live - without
rebooting or even unmounting.
Check the official guide as well as gentoo-wiki.com for more about LVM2.
fdisking is just so 1980's - even microsoft is using LVMs these days
(forget what they call it though) - and they pretty much adopt ever hot
technology absolutely dead last (IP, for example).
