Looks like I made a bone-head mistake! While uprading from F11 to F12, I got a message saying I needed to clear some space in /boot and suggested I remove old kernals - I did, but got a message saying still needed more space. I made (I now realize) the mistake of removing /boot/upgrade/install.img.

The upgrade continued, however upon reboot I'm getting a message that /upgrade/install.img is not being found. Is this something I can replace?

Hi, I was about to do the exact same thing when I found your post. I would be in the same situation.

I still need to free some space to upgrade to F12 but I don't know what to erase. I need only 6 MB.

I finally replaced the install.img by forcing preupgrade to run again.

To get more room on /boot. I ran the the recommended: tune2fs -l /dev/sdb1 (replace sdb1 if necessary with your boot drive).

Everything seems good!
