I guess I got mine from the handbook back in early 2003. That is when I |
| 26 |
did my first install. |

Also, as I stated, I have / and /boot on regular partitions and |
| 29 |
everything else on LVM. Care to guess why I don't have / on a LVM too? |
| 30 |
Yep, to avoid the init thingy. I don't have /boot on LVM because grub |
| 31 |
didn't support it. |
