Sounds perfect.

A redundant reminder...add

audio:x:29:n8vb,root

to /etc/group (if n8vb is your user on the box, and 29 is an
unused group number), and

@audio          -       nice              -10
@audio          -       rtprio          99
@audio          -       memlock         250000

to /etc/security/limits.conf. Then if you run

nice -10 jackd ....whatever

you can be pretty sure you'll never see an xrun, no matter what.
There isn't much that can sneak in front of jackd on the run queue
that way.

Also (superfluously), no reason to use ext3 or reiserfs.
