Configure install via boot parameters?

Try to use http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Quick_installation boot params to use disk the way I like, and here is what I miss: there are maxroot, swapsize, maxvz and minfree params. Is the sum of that sizes is the whole size of storage? Or simple maxroot+swapsize+maxvz=total size, and minfree is "inside" maxvz?

Understandably enough what root and swap sizes (by the way, it is quite a question how much space should I use for swap: the virtual host shouldn't use much of it, so use "twice as RAM size" rule looks silly, moreover RAM in such a server may be really huge - may there be any recommendations from gurus for swap size?).

Now, am I right: the minfree value is something that's left in "pve" space snapshots can be made?

And which sizes be used if given values not to be fit together? Here is some examples, if I use storage of 1000Gb:

1) maxroot=20, swapsize=30, maxvz=900, minfree=50 -> we'll see root=20, swap=30, vz=900, and in that 900 there'll be 850 Gb of useful data and 50 Gb reservation for snapshots - right?

2) maxroot=20, swapsize=30, maxvz=1000, minfree=50 -> root=20 Gb, swap=30 Gb, vz=950 Gb and reservation in it will be 50 Gb - right?
