Upgrading from Fedora 11 to Fedora 12 Using preupgrade 0MB More Space Required

Upgrading from Fedora 11 to Fedora 12 Using preupgrade 0MB More Space Required

I was trying to update to Fedora 12 this morning and the upgrader told me that I needed 18 more megs in partition /mnt/sysimage/boot. I got rid of some old kernel files and tried again, now it tells me I need 0 megs more. I got rid of the memcheck files which at least equal 1 meg (to account for some rounding inconsistencies)
