About the /boot partition:

I suppose you have it set up using pdisk. you can change the partition
type to 83 (linux native), then re-boot and then format the partition
with
mke2fs -i 4096 -m 1 /dev/xxxxxx

then you have to edit /etc/fstab to include it there (just copy the
entry for '/' and change it accordingly. Also, make the /boot directory.
If it exists, do a
mv /boot /tmp/boot
mkdir /boot
mv /tmp/boot/* /boot

Best regards,
Chris
