Your partitioning looks very unconventional. Could you tell us where you
want to mount the different slices and what is the purpose of this machine.

Over 30GB swap seems to be very large. If you are short of memory your
system will come to a standstill even before it can touch only a fraction
of 30GB swap. If the system has lots of memory adding this much swap is
probably a waste.
