Default installing on a 80gb SSD, need help aligning partitions, etc

Hello

For my new server, I've ordered an Intel 80GB X25-M G2 SSD to be used as a system drive. For various reasons, I intent to stick with UFS2 for it (ZFS is going to be used on other disks in the system) and I intend to use GPT partitioning. Can anyone point me to any instructions regarding setting up proper sector sizes, properly aligning partitions to blocks and other such things? Windows 7 and Win2008 R2 both do this automagically, but other OSes seem to require a fair bit of manual work still.
