Don't forget to edit /etc/fstab to mount the new /boot.

Don't forget to leave a /boot directory on the / filesystem (which
should probably be empty) on which Linux can mount the new /boot.

Don't forget to check you can use a rescue disc to get into Fedora
*before* playing with any of this.

Hope this helps,

James.
