I have two options 1.) boot gpart live iso and resize the boot and upgrade to F13 or the most likely option Is to reformat and clean install F13 with seperate /home partition. Either way I still have to back up the /home virtual partition (300gig) before I do anything gparted I find out now will handle lvm filesystem so I will go for the learning experience and try the resize of boot and make a /home partition first (after backup) If that runs into problems then I have no lose and just reformat entire drive and install F13 I am not sure about the nvidia proprietary drivers if I am successful in the /boot resize and upgrade. Would I reinstate nouveau first before the upgrade attempt or can I install F13 upgrade with the nvidia drivers intact?
