Fedora 12 preupgrade issues
If you are having issues with upgrading Fedora from 11 to 12 with error messages saying that your /boot partition is full *and* this walkthrough doesn't help I may have a solution for you:
- Boot into your Fedora 11 kernel
- remount /boot as read write (mount -o remount rw /boot)
- move the file /boot/upgrade/install.img to unencrypted storage, I used a USB key
- Reboot into the Fedora 12 upgrade kernel, when it errors out with a message claiming it can't find the installation image point it at the place you moved the install.img file to.
- Have a beer, the upgrade takes awhlie
The walkthrough on Fedora Project was for people preparing to upgrade, I however was stuck halfway though an upgrade so their solutions didn't help me.
