Sorry... but that's just plain wrong.
Maybe my use case is odd... but my /boot partition is a *MINIMUM* of

Why?
1.) I have a rescue image setup to boot if I need it...
and
2.) I have a ghost image I made right after installing this version
of fedora.
I don't see why either of those should exist entirely in /boot. You
are allowed further partitions.
Where else would they be better placed?
in /dev/sda2, also known as "hidden rescue partition".
I have no desire to clutter my disk with endless numbers of partitions,
indeed. only one additional partition is enough. and guess what ? that's
what numberless laptop manufacturers do in order to store a ghost-ed
backup of the main partition
and placing them in the root partition is just plain stupid.
I agree with you here
Again... where better to place the tools that can fix a broken system?
ughm ... did I mention /dev/sda2, also known as "hidden rescue partition" ?
