Question

I removed a preinstalled Windows 10 to install Fedora 26 on my Lenovo Yoga 9. Now, the computer doesn't boot. Gets stuck during the booting and it shows this. Can Someone please tell me what I should do to fix this? I am completely new to Fedora. I indent to remove Windows 10 and keep Fedora 26.

Answer 1

I was able to solve this it. The problem was that while installing Fedora 26, I didn't do the partitioning properly. I left almost all of my hard drive space unpartitioned/free and had little to none for boot, swap etc.

So all I had to do was reinstall Fedora 26 with proper partitioning and the problem was solved. I mainly followed the following two links:

1. https://www.tecmint.com/fedora-25-installation-guide/
2. https://docs-old.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/22/html/Installation_Guide/sect-installation-gui-manual-partitioning.html

Proper partition is important!
