I'm manually partitioning in order to avoid waiting a week for the
filesystem to be created. I'll add a big /home partition after the fact.
Well, actually, I'll expand /home after the fact :).

I'm doing some strange things such that I want a multi-boot system where
everything but swap is distinct. I'm also doing 32bit vs. 64bit, so I want
to keep the two separate.
