Much simpler to just do an inplace upgrade using dnf system upgrade. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading Otherwise you're kinda in GRUB hacking territory. You could copy the contents of the installer ISO to a spare ext4 volume, and then when you reboot use ls to find that partition's desigation, then something like configfile (hd0,msdos5)/EFI/BOOT/grub.cfg That'd load the UEFI grub.cfg. Sounds like you have traditional BIOS firmware, so you'd need to select the first boot entry, then hit 'e' to edit, and change the linuxefi to linux16 and initrdefi to initrd16. And then control-x or F10 to boot that modified grub.cfg. It should work. *shrug* Once the kernel and initramfs are loaded, most of the environment is setup by dracut scripts. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
