Well,
I got 50M as the suggestion in the Manual.
Hey - it is certainly bigger than necessary,
but when I can't buy a new hard drive at my
local no-name computer shop under 20G any
more, who cares!
It's the only Linux partition that has wasted
space and I usually waste another 1G for a
dos partition so I can copy stuff over before
trashing and reinstalling everything if I
need to (and Linux always leaves it alone,
I guess they got the best idea - stay right
away from ...)
My latest computer's /boot uses 3.5M and I
only have standard RH7.1 installed!
So 1M is certainly too small :-) :-)
