This seriously merits celebration. The local Georgia Tech LUG (LUG at GT)
hosts installfests frequently, and we spend (or rather, spent) at least
half of our time repartitioning drives to create that necessary /boot
partition to satisfy LILO. Our job will be much easier now, and we can
now serve many more people (unfortunately we've had to turn people away
in the past, due to time and equipment constraints).
