It should be no problem at all.
I do it manually from console during installation by using fdisk. It 
allows to specify where the first partition should be start from (1 
cylinder is enough for aboot). I created separate partition (/boot) to 
hold boot images and formated it as ext2.
If using DiskDruid - create a small dummy partion at the begining of the 
disk, when create all other partions. After that - delete the dummy 
partion. :)

Partitioning should be bsd-style, but without creating 'c' partition 
that holds the whole disk - it should be removed if one exists.

For MILO it should be no matter what type of partitioning to use.

Hope this helps,
