I remember having the nearly-empty /boot/grub directory before but
memory fails me as to the exact circumstances.
Have installed C5 with/without a /boot partition, but having a /boot
seems to be the safer bet. If / is LVM a /boot is required as GRUB
doesn't seem to be able to deal with LVM - thus the "standard"
configuration one gets with a default install/partitioning. (Following
the link within the link below may bring back memories of some very
extended threads for some on the list. :-)
