I don't know what or how all I know is it was there. Plus it was a separate post by itself not part of a remaining post.catweazel wrote: ⤴Sat Jun 02, 2018 4:28 amPerhaps it's because I use UEFI.

Re: [Solved] Should I update to the 4.15 kernel?
Sorry for the late reply, I've been abroad for a while.
I have decided just to keep the current kernel; my concern was simply if there might be advantages in terms of security when upgrading.
In any case, thanks for the help!

I "believe" that if your silly enough to encrypt your drive during install, then inxi -Fxz does indeed show/include the /boot partition in it's output.catweazel wrote: ⤴Sat Jun 02, 2018 4:09 amNo.

Or it could be as simple as actually having a separate boot partition.
