Unless something has changed since the last time I was messing with
this sort of thing, one hazard of installing a Linux last is that
there may by then be no space left for the /boot partition, which
has to be below cylinder 1024 to be accessible by BIOS.  One might
want to allocate what will become /boot as early in the process as
possible.
