Yes that's correct and a perfectly fine solution.

I don't think it's any bigger waste with only two partitions, as he suggested. Or even with third big partition some day.

CF cards working on a cheap IDE-CF adapter in my A1200s:
Kingston elite pro 4GB 133x (CF/4GB-S2)
Kingston elite pro 8GB 133x (CF/8GB-S2)
Mustang Interlagos 16GB 633x
