That's the problem. I'm 1.5mb short, according to preupgrade. > Have you tried Germán's suggestion of removing unneeded F11 kernels? I have removed all but one F11 kernel (rpm -e kernel-whatever-whatever) so there's only one left. And as I said before, I don't see where I can remove anything else to gain that 1.5mb and still have a kernel that my computer can boot. > The Achilles's heel of preupgrade is the amount of free space in your > /boot partition. Indeed. I really don't get it, because I initially formatted that computer with the F10 rawhide a month or so before the F10 release. And I used the default disk partitioning that the installer suggested. Kinda ironic, since > Can you resize your > partitions such that /boot has more space? I have no idea how to do that. Again, I just used the default F10 partitioning scheme and it's seemed to be working fine up to this point. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
