Not sure Femme. If you told it "/boot" is a partition, the directory should have been effectively a hard link to your /boot partition. In my understanding, often error prone, in up to 8.1 /boot and / both needed to be ext2 but not under 8.2. Without knowing exactly what you tried and how you went about it, it is hard to tell more. -- Michael
