Right now, the cloud images are unpartitioned. In some cloud providers (e.g., the 800lb gorilla of Amazon EC2) we in fact use the kernel that assumes the image is just one partition, not a disk image. We could change that (and I kind of want to anyway, for consistency), but it would be... change. Having a separate /boot is also problematic (read: wasteful) for ultra-small images, and adds complexity a lot of users are going to frown at. So..... if by "/boot" you mean "the partition that /boot happens to be on, even if it is /", then I think we're good. Otherwise we will have to figure something else out. -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
