I notice that with some Linux distros, some folk create a separate /boot partition, when installing on an MBR (MSdos) formatted drive. Is there any reason or advantage gained in doing this? Personally, I can't see any (it's a bit of a waste of space), and prefer to install LL as either /root only, or with separate /root and /home partitions.
As ever, I'm looking forward to hearing your views & comments ...
