Old Athlon 64 X2 PC has both F41 and F42, until tonight, last upgraded 10 weeks
ago. Initially, 41 refused to run dnf upgrade without segfaulting, as noted in my
thread in users list 3 hours ago, but dnf clean all fixed it.

42 is another story. After initial upgrade, I installed the 6.14.11 kernel, which
worked just fine. Then I tried to install 6.15.8. Attempting to boot it produced
lots of SSD access timeouts before refusing to continue. I rebooted into 6.14.11,
removed 6.15.8, then installed 6.15.7. That produced no apparent difference from
6.15.8, so I booted 6.14.11 once more, removed 6.15.7, then installed kwizart's
6.12.39. It works normally.

I note the 6.15 initrds are ~18.6% larger than those of 6.12.39, ~18.0% larger
than 6.14.11, and ~24.6% larger than 6.13.11. 42's 6.15.7 initrd is 36.6% bigger
than TW's 6.12.39. I haven't changed anything in dracut configuration to trigger
its growth.

No Fedora bootloader is installed. PC boots all 30+ Linux installations
exclusively from openSUSE 13.1's Grub Legacy. "Newest" kernels on it that boot are
41/42's 6.14.11, Fedora's and Tumbleweed's 6.12.39, and Trixie's 6.12.38
