If so, I would check to see if it is actually mounted as /boot from the initramfs. It might just be /, at least until the initramfs is unmounted and the root filesystem is mounted on top of it. That's what I'd look for. /boot separate filesystem == it's / on initial boot /boot part of / == it's /boot on initial boot. --Russell
