RE: partitioning

Well, I got that settled and was able to get to my 120gb hard drive, but
before I continue partitioning my drive, I want to make sure I got the
partitioning process right.  I'm using cfdisk to partition it.  Now, I
first have the boot partition that is 100mb (from the install doc).  I
would just go to new, then put in the size of 100mb, then go on to the
swap partition (do the same), then the root partition (and do the same
again). (and would this be at the beginning of the drive or end? Or does
it matter?) But, will I need to specify that the swap partition be type
82 (and would the boot partition as well as the root partition be type
83?).  If so, that will be done outside of cfdisk, right?  I didn't find
a way in cfdisk to specify the type.  If I do need to specify, how would
I?  Would I want Logical or Primary for these partitions?  (I haven't
done this in a LONG while and I really don't want to mess this stuff up)
I really appreciate you people for all your help.
