My system works fine. I have files inside /boot. And my fstab also
doesn't show that /boot is mounted. As I know fstab only shows the
mounted partitions. My /home is in a separate partition and it's there
in fstab. But I haven't allocated a separate partition for /boot and
it's not mentioned in fstab.

So not having /boot in fstab doesn't indicate that it is not mounted
nor it may be empty or such, isn't it?
