Scrap the whole scheme.  Just use LVM.  Trust me on this.  It is quite
worth it.  Setting up LVM on a new drive is a piece of cake.  Trying to
do it once the drive has been in use for a year and you have lots of
important data on it is a royal pain.  With LVM you can resize your
partitions whenever you want.
