I see a couple of problems already. /boot should be no more than 100MB.
Anything more is a waste. / should be way more than 500MB. I know that
some will say "I run my entire Linux box on a 486DX66 and 250MB HD!"
Well, this is RH8 and gi

swap (twice ram)
then use LVM for the rest. with LVM you'll be able to increase/decrease
partitions size seamlessly

Partitioning can be a subjective thing since it depends, in part, on
what you intend to do with the machine. If, for instance, you intend to
have a sizable user base, then you want to have plenty of /home space.
Regardless, most people new to Linux make the mistake of not making /usr
and /var large
