Have been regularly updating f43 since it dropped. This is the first to
show the error.
How full is /boot? And EFI mounted inside it?
Knew /boot could not have a size problem as it was on /. Wasn't seeing
that /boot/efi was stuffed. Something is putting 100M files in
/boot/efi/EFI/Linux for every kernel update and not cleaning out the
entries for deleted kernels.
Typical entry
-rwx------. 1 root root 90713960 Jan 9 11:58
2fda0fc4926a4894802cbde1280fadb0-6.18.3-200.fc43.x86_64.efi

Does doing a dnf search for /boot/efi/EFI/Linux reveal what might be
using that folder, as on my F43 system, which as far as I am aware is
"standard" F43 that Linux folder doesn't exist, which would indicate to
me that some package you have installed is creating and using that folder.
