Hi,
for an immediate workaround, remove the oldest kernel.
Here are the steps together with an example output:
1) List installed kernel-core packages:
# rpm -qa | grep kernel-core | sort
kernel-core-6.8.4-200.fc39.x86_64
kernel-core-6.8.6-200.fc39.x86_64
kernel-core-6.8.7-200.fc39.x86_64
2) Remove the oldest one
# dnf remove <oldest of the packages above>
Dependencies resolved.

3) profit
you have extra ~160 MB now.
System update should have enough space to install the new kernel now.
4)
Once finished, I'd recommend you to try to enlarge your /boot/
partition a bit (e.g. 100 - 500 MB ?) to avoid this problem
permanently.

I had the same problem a few days ago and did the same. I
posted this reply but HyperKitty doesn't find it. So..
But I installed f40 a few days ago, and today "dnf upgrade" installed
kernel-6.8.8 but *not* vmlinuz-6.8.8, so booting failed.
My /boot partition is 450 GB, and I now have two bootable f40 kernels
and a recent rescue kernel. There's no room for another. You probably
don't have a "recovery" option.
I now have "installonly_limit=2" in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf, but a new "dnf
upgrade" after that said there was "nothing to do". What did work was (
while running 6.8.7):
sudo dnf remove kernel-core-6.8.8
sudo dnf upgrade
and then when "systemctl list-jobs" was clear, "sudo systemctl reboot"
I, too, would prefer to have a bigger /boot, but this info might help.

Hello,
During an update, I get

At least 7MB more space needed on the /boot filesystem.
How can I fix it without currently resizing /boot?
Thank
