Is it possible to install a second Fedora on the same machine without wrecking all installs.
I'm currently having a dual boot Win10/Fedora but this Fedora install is rolling from Fedora 30, so I want to clean it up, being able to grab some old config from the former Fedora install.
I've a new disk to install the new Fedora (sdc 1To), which I want to use as LVM & xfs that's why I need to know if I need a new EFI part:
sdc
sdd
├─sdd1
├─sdd2 vfat FAT32 xxxx
├─sdd3 ntfs xxxx xxxxxxxx 41,2G 52% /DATA
├─sdd4 ext4 1.0 root xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 51G 30% /
├─sdd5 vfat FAT32 efi xxxxx 491,9M 4% /boot/efi
└─sdd6 ext4 1.0 Home xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 3,5G 94% /home
Can I use the existing EFI partition or I need to create a new one on
/dev/sdc
and add a chainloader to be able to boot from the /dev/sdd5
which is the former EFI.
# ls /boot/efi/EFI/
BOOT fedora
