The article doesn't make it clear if this is XFS for both /boot and /
or just /. But if it's the former, it ends the debate about
installing the bootloader on a partition. XFS has no bootloader pad
at all so it isn't possible. On EFI systems, it doesn't matter.
Well, that only stops you from installing the bootloader on a partition;
it doesn't stop you from putting it in the MBR.
