Resizing and defragmenting Linux filesystems (NewsForge)Resizing and defragmenting Linux filesystems (NewsForge)Posted Oct 14, 2003 11:02 UTC (Tue) by eru (subscriber, #2753)In reply to: Resizing and defragmenting Linux filesystems (NewsForge) by p00ya Parent article: Resizing and defragmenting Linux filesystems (NewsForge) Why have the /boot then? Supposedly with some BIOSes, LILO cannot boot the kernel if it lies too far from the beginning on a large disk. Putting it into its own partition at the beginning of the disk avoids this. Maybe this no longer matters on current computers and/or with Grub?
