Hi,

Presently my boot folder resides under root as /boot. If I decide to make a separate boot partition on my hard drive are then the following steps the right way?

-- Make a partition on the hard drive of 50 MB and format it.

-- in fstab put "/dev/hda3 /boot ext3 defaults 0 0

-- move /boot to /tmp/boot

-- mount /boot

-- move files of /tmp/boot to /boot

If so do i have to make a new mkbootdisk?

Thanks & regards
