No, you can't do that. /boot is special and needs to be a separate

Needs is a bit strong, as grub2 does support LVM.  It's not a supported
configuration for Redhat.

I'm not a sure there's a lot to it beyond having the lvm module loaded in
grub, but I've honestly not tried.


Indeed, /boot does not need to be a separate partition. I have /boot within the root filesystem on my test boxes where I know I will need to install many / all kernels for testing / development purposes for the specific reason that I do not need to set a size for /boot and it can just consume whatever it needs from the rest of the filesystem.
