Also:
- EFI has to be vfat anyways.
- ext2 (with journalling on) gave me too many headaches to consider it
superior in terms of stability; btrfs has been a much better
experience.
- Given the limitted size of /boot, it would be easily feasible to keep
a dd image just in case (on the root file system, assuming a recovery
option which could be a live usb with a "rescue/chroot" entry").
Come to think of it: We may want thos for EFI as well.

What a bad idea.
To unlock the drive that image is on, you need already a working
initramfs & kernel. If you have that, you can get into a root shell and
fix your problem directly. A /boot copy would only be usefull, if /boot
got lost ( which happend to my system once ) and in that case on grub
entry will be available ;)
But, you gave me a rough idea what a rescue partition needs to be in
size and functionality. Calculating with the worst possible outcome (
1-2G ) we can directly spent this space as a hidden partition on the
same drive and have a full grown X11 Gnome System on it. With all the
tools needed to fix boot issues, data recovery tools and so on. i think
i will give it a try. thx for the inspiration.
best regards,
Marius Schwarz
