I wasn't replying to you but to Alan. The people who casually try out
releases are not necessarily going to read anything. Some of them will
get it directly from the torrent site or other mirrors and run into
these sort of issues. We can cover some of these by being upfront about
things but a lot of them just won't see it until they hit issues directly.

LVM is default for Fedora and if you are using LVM, you do need a
separate /boot partition.

Yes, I think the advantages over-weigh the issues.
