        Could, yes.  In practice ... never had it happen to me.  I've
screwed up the boot code, but not in ways haveing a seperate
partition would have stopped.  Can't remember anyone else finding it
useful either.
        I'm also curious as to whether having the boot code on a
non-root filesystem even works.
