| 8 | No, you don't NEED to have seperate /boot partitions. The problem |
| 9 | might be, that the default filenames "overlap" in Gentoo and Ubuntu. |
| 10 | But if you make sure that this does not happen and if you setup |
| 11 | your bootloader (grub?) "properly", then all is fine. |

| 13 | Sharing swap is no problem at all. |
