Not your root partition, unless you can manage to unmount it without having a fatal system crash.

Nobody said you have to run it from that filesystem/partition? > Not your root partition, unless you can manage to unmount it without having a fatal system crash. You can resize your root partition using fdisk/partprobe without unmounting it, then move /boot to be after root. I'm sure there are many other ways to do it as well (pivot_root, etc).
