[SOLVED] /boot partition too small
by Eeel from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5S50X)
Hello,
I am using Slackware -current and have a /boot partition of 100M, now i realise this partition is a bit small and want to gain space to have the choice to boot two Kernel in lilo.
I removed the huge Kernel package.
I'm using lilo and an initrd with the generic Kernel 5.4.84 but now want to have a second initrd for the 5.15.2 Kernel.
Can i safely delete the initrd-tree to gain space and continue to boot the 5.4.84 initrd ?
I also notice there is a grub folder of ~10M in the /boot folder, can i delete this folder ? Removing grub with pkgtool did not removed this folder.
A final note, my setup is in raid with three drive, and i have ~1G of free space on every drive, but i don't know if it's possible, and a good idea, to try to make this /boot partition bigger, sounds risky to me.
