My /etc/fstab, per Gentoo's default recommendations.
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda5 / reiserfs noatime 0 1
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda6 /home reiserfs defaults,noatime 0 2
So, for /boot it seems like a good idea, and it's nice for /home if
you do backups, as well as /etc if that's a separate partition.
Cheers
