As previously written, 1 MB is plenty enough for a BIOS boot partition. It is not an EFI system partition nor /boot. It just contains GRUB's core image for BIOS. The current size of this image is less than 50 kB in the worst case, and I don't see it grow bigger than 1 MB any time soon because it is also designed to fit in the 1 MB MBR gap for MBR-style disks. GRUB's fancy and heavy stuff is kept out of the core image, in /boot/grub or other places. Besides, as previously written, there is a 500 GB unallocated space at the end of the 2 TB disk so there is really really no need to shrink anything. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
