/boot is very small and usually it's a good idea to have it in the begining of the disk so bootloaders don't have problems with dealing with it. At least this was a requirement with ancient distributions/disks/bios :) I'm not sure if the same happens today on any arch or port... If that's the case then /boot, swap, everything else would be safer. This bug report actually belongs to partman-auto in which there are the partition recipies. > > Greetings, > > Olaf > > Disk /dev/sda: 17.2 GB, 17179869184 bytes > 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2088 cylinders > Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes > Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > Disk identifier: 0x00050fa9 > > Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System > /dev/sda1 * 1 993 7976241 83 Linux > /dev/sda2 994 1044 409657+ 5 Extended > /dev/sda5 994 1044 409626 82 Linux swap / > Solaris > > -- System Information: > Debian Release: wheezy/sid > APT prefers stable > APT policy: (500, 'stable'), (1, 'unstable'), (1, 'testing') > Architecture: i386 (i686) > > Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) > Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- Melhores cumprimentos/Best regards, Miguel Figueiredo http://www.DebianPT.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
