I have a running baremetal server with fedora CoreOS 41.
I have done a minor change in the ignition file, just to disable zincati.
Can I apply the new ignition on top of current deploy
or should I perform a brand new installation from scratch?
If possible, whats the procedure?
Ignition runs only once during the first boot of the system (while in the initramfs). If you need a new Ignition config, you must reprovision the machine.
Out of curiosity, why did you disable Zincati? If your data is stored under a persistent /var (which can be set in the initial Ignition config), it will not be affected by system version upgrades (rebasing) or re-provisioning.

Thank you for helping.
Reason for disabling zincati is that I prefer to trigger upgrade myself via command ‘rpm-ostree upgrade’
