Hi,
In LL 4.0, you may use swap partition instead of swap file. Personally I find swap partition scheme easier to maintain.
I don't know how many physical HD
you have but I assume here that you have one physical hard drive and you
want to have two separate OS's in it?
First of all, I suggest strongly to have a GPT partition scheme instead of "MBR only". It makes more sense and easier
to maintain since you don't need to worry about "extended partitions" and so on. Just create as many partitions as
you need and they are basically all the same, except that you may define the partition type more accurately using GPT
than MBR only.
Secondly, it is a good practice to have that swap partition the last partition in the disk since you propably won't need swap
at all with LL and thus the physical HD does not need to read/write that area, making the system a bit faster as such.
If you specify more of your disk(s) layout, I may be able to give more accurate opinion
