LVM was actually introduced precisely for this purpose, AFAIK. Once preupgrade complained it needs more space for /boot, I would use LVM tools to expand /boot accordingly, then start again. That said, please note that I never upgrade Fedora (always reformat and do a clean install), and that I don't use LVM (always manually create a custom bare-bones partition layout to suit my needs). IOW, I may not be the proper person to give the above advice. ;-) HTH, :-) Marko -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
