In practice the number for Linux is closer to one than a dozen: ext4, xfs, 
btrfs. Each has a significant install base, including at organizations with the 
resources to maintain both the filesystem and grub.

- Debian and Ubuntu normally place the kernel and initramfs on either the / 
partition or a separate /boot partition if LUKS is used. Either way, ext4 is 
the default filesystem.

- RHEL derivatives default to xfs for `/boot`.

- Suse (including enterprise Suse) use a btrfs subvolume for `/boot`
