It seems that on EFI hardware Fedora 25 can be installed without the suggested separate /boot partition. I just selected auto partitioning on a LVM device, then deleted the given new /boot partition. It seems to work ok.
Is it safe? If so, why does the Fedora installer propose a separate /boot in this EFI hardware case with GPT partitioning? Are there advantages/disadvantages? Skipping the creation of a separate /boot seems very convenient since a new install under LVM would only require one new physical partition, and reduce clutter (though I am a little suspicious about having swap under LVM too - is it shared by other OS' too?). On the other hand note that the Btrfs volume install does not allow you to delete the /boot partition. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
