Description Jan Stodola 2022-01-19 14:09:56 UTC

This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #1844423

I am copying this bug because: 
This bug should also be fixed in RHEL-9.
The new recommended minimum should be 512 MiB, see the upstream PR:
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/3302


Since RHEL 8.2, I always get an installation error of:

DNF error: Error in POSTTRANS scriptlet in rpm package kmod-kvdo

Finally I found anaconda recommends the size of /boot partition is 200 Mib or higher but 200 MB is not enough for the partition and the partition usage is 100% and causes above error.

Probably I think the minimum /boot size would be 300MB and the recommendation is 400MB in RHEL 8.y if I think the kernel update later.
