Re: /boot partition too big ( 1 MB !!)

Hi Alessandro,

Don't see an answer to your message so I'll try.  Try making your linux
boot partition 16 meg or so as the very first partition on the drive. 
Then create your windows partition and the linux partition.  I t should
work that way.  It seems that there is a limit over which linux can't go
back to install.   If you can access the archives there have been several
discussions of this by eople much more knowledgeable than I.   This
worked for me on a 30 gig harddrive though.
