Hi,
My question was a little off the topic - I didn't have the size question -
my question was that I didn't realize that you could setup an install
without a /boot partition, and was wondering how this was done.

Hi there,
If you insist on a separate /boot then around 5 Mb should be

Ah, you mean the kernel-source.i586.rpm file? I thought you were talking

The /boot partition only needs to be about 15 megs. That is what I set
mine to without any problems.

If you let the LM7.1 installer do the partitiong, you'll end up with a /,
/usr, /home and SWAP partition. At least that's wh
