Well, you can try seaching the newbie archive, it was about two
years ago. I also use ReiserFS for all partitions, and I didn't
have a separate /boot. When I mentioned a few minor gremlins
(sorry, don't remember what they were), that's when civileme
advised to use a separate /boot and make it ext2 or 3, when using
journaling FS's. You might consider doin the same next time you
install.
