right.

but do not forget bootloader requires things to be in /boot directory on 
boot partition

so do it that way

20MB /b partition (a)
rest - geli encrypted / partition (d)

on / partition make link /boot -> /b/boot

put /boot things in /b/boot


well done custom kernel should fit in 10MB /b partition including boot 
loader. and you can gzip /boot/kernel/kernel
