Hi

Just to clarify: do you really boot from BIOS via MBR or do you use UEFI (and are therefore in need of GPT)?

For the latter I recommend creating a 1MB Bios-Boot-partition (ef02) with gdisk, some swap after that and, dependant on your personal needs, either the rest for system or a bit for system and the rest for home
