These lines are added to grub.conf

title Upgrade to Rawhide
        kernel /upgrade/vmlinuz preupgrade lang=ja_JP.UTF-8 keymap=us
stage2=hd:sda2:/upgrade/minstg2.img
method=http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/Fedora/development/x86_64/os
        initrd /upgrade/initrd.img


Is it enough that /boot has only 100MB?

df /boot
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2               101086     86015     12984  87% /boot
