Description Rahul Sundaram 2009-09-19 20:50:23 UTC
Description of problem:

The installation guide recommends 100 MB which is certainly not enough with the development of preupgrade which uses /boot the initial bootstrap data.

Comment 1 David Nalley 2009-10-19 02:53:09 UTC
The bug that this links to bz # 510970 states that 250MB is enough
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510970#c7

 - the current F12 draft of the guide has this listed which is consistent with Rudi's comments here: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=510970#c8

I am going to close this bug, if you feel that I have missed something either in another bug or in the one referenced by the common bug page, please reopen. 

Thanks Rahul!
