I discovered what is happening.
The installer almost implies that /boot and the palo partition are one in
the same. When I ran palo, the filesystem for /boot would be trashed.
This is because palo was using /dev/sda1 which was for /boot. I guess
it's an easy conceptual problem to develop.
Should I file this as a bug to be a little more clear? With palo you can
place /boot anywhere, only the boot partition needs to be w/in the first
2gb limit.
