I don't think he was being funny. I have been around a long time and
missed the point about moving /boot to the front of a disk. I have heard
a thousand words a week about LVM and it never made the point that it
moved /boot close to the near end of a hard drive. I HATE LVM.
I don't know about hating LVM. When I use LVM, which is all the time,
I always create a /boot partition outside of the LVM volumes. I have
created a /boot partition since the first time I put a 20GB drive in a
machine whose bios would only recognize a 2GB limit.
I haven't tried putting /boot inside LVM, but I didn't think it would
work because grub wouldn't be able to find it. Has that changed?
