I've been running Fedora 8 in my host environment and in the process of upgrading servers to Fedora 14 and Ext4. I've been doing Linux for a long time and have old habits that might be obsolete. I usually partition drives as follows:

/dev/sda1 /boot - 100M
/dev/sda2 swap - 8G
/dev/sda3 / 8G
/dev/sda4 /vz - whatever is left

First - is there any reason to have /boot separate? I remember back on the old days there was some 1024 cylinder limit but that has to be gone by now.

What do you all use and why? I like keeping things simple.
