Because it's easier to have a single fs for / than have multiple partitions, and try to isolate all of the things that are "essentially static" and move them over to unjournalled file systems. Journalling operations on /boot are responsible for filling a very, very small percentage of my hard disk. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
