Hello,
I prepared my fresh installation of F26.
I have a /boot (500M) partition (actually /boot/efi preformated as
ext4). In the installer, I get:
For a UEFI installation, you must include an EFI system Partition on a
GPT-formatted disk, mounted as /boot/efi
Can it not reformatted the /boot with the correct format (I set
reformat EFI System Partition).
Should I do it with fdisk manually (ef)?
Thank.
Hello Patrick,
I did a fresh install of Fedora26Beta Mate desktop, a few days before
F26 was released. I let the install process use all the defaults.
Listed below is the disk configuration it created. I see that the EFI
is sda1, 200m, and the boot is sda2, 1g and it has already used 167m of
space in just a couple of weeks. Maybe it would be a good idea to
consider a boot larger than 500m?
