I too would liked ResierFS to support partitions less than 32Mb. In my opinion, 50Mb is a huge overkill for a /boot partition, and with smaller hard disks, it's a great waste of space. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda7 30M 3.7M 25M 13% /boot The contents of my /boot partition are simply files related to *one* kernel, 2.4.17-1mdk. I can appreciate that others may want to have a variety of kernels for testing purposes, but even so, I would have thought 50Mb would be a waste. *shrug* Regards, -- Ashley Reynolds - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever."
