NOTES

With Fedora Kinoite, only certain mounts can be manually specified as partitions.

These include:

• /boot

• /var

  • Subdirectories under /var, including:

    • /var/home (Fedora Kinoite has a symlink from /home to /var/home)

    • /var/log

    • /var/containers

  • The root filesystem: /

The Fedora installer is not aware of these restrictions and will accept custom partitions without error, even if they are incompatible with Fedora Kinoite.
