Description of problem: During installation, the installer migrates existing /boot from ext2 to ext3. f7 / is a separate partition from existing / and is formatted new. /boot is migrated successfully to ext3. /etc/fstab entries are set up successfully (i.e., separate entry for /boot). However, system.map, config, grub directory, initrd, and vmlinuz are installed into /boot directory on / partition, not into /boot partition. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): f7-test2-dvd-i386 How reproducible: I only tried once, but I expect I could do it always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start with existing ext2 older installation 2. In installer, migrate /boot partition from ext2 to ext3 3. In installer, format fresh / partition for f7-test2 Actual results: f7 /boot files are in /boot directory on / partition Expected results: f7 /boot files should be in /boot partition Additional info: hda1 /boot (common to fc5 and f7) hda2 / (fc5) hda3 swap (common to fc5 and f7) hda4 / (f7) Conjecture: The migration of the /boot partition from ext2 to ext3 appears to result in the /boot partition not being mounted during installation.
Tested this in rawhide today and it appears to be working correctly now.
