SurfahBoy808 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I want to redo my RAID setup and I was curious as to what size is enough for the boot partion for the RAID array? my current setup has a 1GB boot partition, but something is telling me that is overkill, but I have no idea.

ianw1974 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 You could always take a look at the /boot directory and see what it's total size is. When I installed Gentoo, they suggested a boot partition of 32MB. Have a look at it's size now, maybe double it, and create it based on that. 1GB definitely does sound overkill though.

Funny, it's only using 13MB. Ok, for future reference, I'm not making it bigger than 64MB next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
