Upgrading to 7.1, need help with partitioning

Hello,
I own an Alpha PC 164-LX which is currently running Redhat 6.0. I'm
trying to upgrade to 7.1. After spending 4-5 hours just trying
to get the install program to run, now I'm faced with this error message
saying I need 3 MB more space on my /boot partition. Currently it's
a 10 MB partition.
Does this mean I have to repartition my drive? Is this something I can
accomplish safely either using AlphaBios or one of the fdisk utilities?
Also it says that for the 2.4 kernel it needs more swap space. Does this
mean I should also increase my swap partition? Or can it just create a
file for that on the main partition?
I'm a real newbie so forgive me if this is asked a lot. I've looked
all over the RedHat documentation I have and can't find any info on it.
Thanks,
Allen Ziegenfus
