Thanks Ken, that was remarkably easy. I was thinking that mkinitrd would need some fancy command-line options. It doesn't! I also commented out the /etc/fstab line for /boot as a separate partition. I also used "cp -rp" instead of mv.
cp instead of mv saved you. You're now booted and running off the old boot partition's menu, kernel and initrd from the currently unmounted old boot partition. Grub booting takes no account of fstab or /proc/mounts.
If grub was installed to /boot, it still is. It is not inside the partition data, it is outside the filesystem. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
