Re: /boot partition or not on C5

hello,

the last 3 times I installed C5, the MBR was unchanged and nothing was written into /boot/grub except splash.xbm.gz

there were no stage* files, nor a menu.lst
I know how to fix that.

Would I have better luck using a partition mounted as /boot?
Anyone succeded with Grub that way? I prefer not having to do surgery to get C5 to boot :)

I always use a small /boot partition, but I have been in Linux long enough (mid 90's) that nothing used to boot on a partition over 1024 cylinders, not grub, not lilo. Once you find something that works, you tend to keep using it.
Call me old and stale!  ;-P
