I think that is only the case if you don't have enough space in /boot to 
put the images there when preupgrade is run and if /boot is actually part 
of the / filesystem then that is unlikely to be a problem.

I think that most people are in that boat.

I wouldn't say that you are going to have trouble...what does happen is
that it will attempt to download a bootable image which requires a wired
internet connection with dhcp so the network adaptor will configure
itself, obtain DNS and download the necessary boot image before
continuing on.

2009-01-16 Thread Aaron Konstam
Am I correct if I am trying to use preupgrade to upgrade from F9 to F10
I am going to have trouble is in F9 the /boot is not a separate
partition?
