Sudden increases in the size of Fedora’s initramfs files have prompted the project to fast-track a proposal to increase the default size of the /boot partition for new installs of Fedora 43 and later. The project has also walked back a few changes that have contributed to larger initramfs files, but the ever-increasing size of firmware means that the need for more room is unavoidable. The Fedora Engineering Steering Council (FESCo) has approved a last-minute change just before the final freeze for Fedora 43 to increase the default size of the /boot partition from 1GB to 2GB; this will leave plenty of space for kernels and initramfs images if a user is installing from scratch, but it is of no help for users upgrading from Fedora 42.
It’s something I noticed this last half year, how the kernel has just ballooned, especially for us nvidia users.
Over on Nobara they did at one point recommend this, but has since been removed from their wiki, but:
and then rebuilding initramfs:
It certainly helps me a lot as I’m stuck with a 1GB /boot partition, although I see why it’s not recommended as those with LUKS set up will have problems.
