i claim w/ older (p3/p4 class) bios's ...you will NOT be able to boot if
your /boot/vmlinuz is NOT in a partition space under 8GB or 1024cyl...
- thus everybody seems to go around creating a small /boot
as their first partitions
but if / is 256MB or so ( like it should be for getting into single user
mode ) ... /boot partition is NOT an issue..
maybe the new bios routines gets around the 1024cylinder requirement
