Hi Denis,
The /boot partition isn't needed at all in 7.1 ? While I didn't try
otherwise during the install, I thought you would be required to indicate
a " / "and " /boot " partition, at a minimum, just that the /boot did
not need to be above 1024 cylinders. What would you do during the
installation , to indicate where you boot from ?
Thnx,
philomena
