Just today I upgraded from 39 to 40 but there was an issue:
dnf told me I needed some 800k more space in my /boot partition to proceed.
I had two kernels in /boot so I dnf removed those associated with the older
of the two kernels. I then successfully upgraded.
I fear the next time I do a dnf update which includes a new kernel I will
be told, again, that there is not enough space in my /boot partition.
So, how can I increase the size of the /boot partition? Many partitions,
like /tmp, are bigger than they need to be.
Here is what how the /sda disk is organized.
$ lsblk

Thanks for any help give.
I realize one way is to backup /home and then reinstall Fedora but
1) that seems like a lot of work,
2) it would mean that the machine in question would then have to
use Wayland rather than Xorg and
3) with Wayland I could not use xfce4.
