In order to avoid an "init thingy"[tm]. If you want root on LVM you need a thingy thingy, a separate root avoids that. I used to run a similar configuration for the same reason, separate /root on ext4 but no separate /boot. Nowadays, I don't use LVM and I've grown to like dracut. -- Neil Bothwick If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it considered a hostage situation?
