At installation time:
When you are asked to partition the hard drive, you must select manual instead automatic and then you can choose the size and place of your partitions. Be really careful if you have another active partition on your hard drive.
hope this helps, let me know.

You must make an ext3 partition (amount: no less than 10Gb) and a linux-swap partition (amount: the double of your RAM memory).
If you have space left, you can increase the amount of the ext3 partition as you want to do.
There is no reason to increase the linux swap partition size.
Hope this helps, let me know.
