Subject: [gentoo-dev] boot partition size recommendation

1 I'm in the process of downloading and installing gentoo and as I was
2 looking over the install directions I noticed that the recommendation
3 is for the boot partition to be ~100 megabytes. I'm wondering why so
4 large? On one of my linux boxes the boot partition is 4 MB and I'm
5 only using 36% of it. I know discs are cheap but 100 MB seems like a
6 lot of overkill and wasted space.
