Is my only real choice to cut back from 2 old kernels to 1 old kernel?
Maybe not. Most people don't need to run more than one kernel at a time, or retain
more than one as emergency fallback.
Does your overall configuration necessitate having boot on its own partition? If
not, and you have plenty of freespace on /, you could remount your /boot/
filesystem elsewhere, remove that filesystem from fstab, copy old filesystem
content to the now empty /boot/ directory on /, and finish by reinstalling bootloader.
I don't know. The original install was done 10+ years ago. Not knowing any better, I very probably just accepted the defaults. Much of what you suggest here is over my head.
Another possibility: if there is space that can be made available for a completely
new larger boot elsewhere, make it, and migrate in similar manner to moving old
/boot/'s content to /. /boot/ filesystem need not be on the same disk as /.
There is only one hard drive.
Removing the oldest kernel (dnf remove kernel-core...) looks to have solved the problem, at least for a while. But thank-you for trying to help.
