This will waste 128 MB of space. Unless things have changed, the largest
usable size for a single swap partition is 128 MB. I would recomend
keeping a seperate /home partition even if not serving others. I like to
keep my stuff that I will keep seperate. IF I was making a server for
others use, I would also keep sepearte /var and /tmp partitions arround.
