Hi, I have a couple of comments, and a question.

Your reiserfs-bashing is obsolete.  :-)  I've been using it
for the past 5 months on a colocated server and find it to 
be fast, space-efficient and stable.  The only stability 
problem I had was at the very beginning and was traced to 
faulty memory (reiser seems to be unforgiving of hardware 
problems).

Also option "notail" is no longer a requirement with lilo
(and I believe grub).  This was fixed over a year ago.
You can find this info in the lilo changelog.

Which brings me to my question.  I want to use lilo, and I
don't want a separate boot partition.  However lilo refuses
to install without /boot in fstab.  How can I get around
this?

Thanks for a GREAT distribution!
