Shane's e-mail probably answers your question, but if you have a
standalone /boot partition, there is no reason for it to be anything
but ext2 (or maybe ext3 if you're worried about crashing while writing
to it).
You often use other file system types for their I/O and/or large (or
small) file performance. No real need for an "exotic" file system
for /boot.
