Recently found that new Kernel would not install because not enough space in /boot.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On local 3 notebooks, was able to to remove oldest kernel using 
dnf, and modifying the dnf.conf to only allow 2 kernels.
Then the install went thru ok.
On one I shifted / partition over 512M and expanded /boot to make 
it 1.5G now.
I've got 5 other machines that are 7 timezones away, and did same 
process to get them to be able to install new kernels. 

Current notebook has a 1.5G boot so has the 3 kernels and rescue 
kernel.
/dev/sdb2        1512328    945096    519396  65% /boot

Just looking at img files.

Have used dnfup for long time, so not sure if size was changed at 
some point. Just checked a recent install on 2TB system, and it 
shows boot as 1G?

But seeing its img files about 100M smaller than on this one?

So, not sure why huge difference in sizes?

Thanks.
