I have told newbie installers to create as the first partition a small
50 MB for /boot, then swap 200% RAM and the rest root. The /boot is
there to avoid problems with 1024 cylider limit for placing the kernel
image on PC machines. 

This works, and uses only three partitions, so IDE disk users can
still create a fourth for some other operating system or for /home.
