Greetings,
I have just been given a VPS with a fresh, minimal Centos 4.2 installation. When I ran "yum update" it went on updating some tenths of packages and signalled this error:
Updating : perl ####################### [24/88] Updating : rpm-python ####################### [25/88] Updating : MAKEDEV ####################### [26/88] error: unpacking of archive failed on file /dev/MAKEDEV: cpio: rename Updating : iputils ####################### [27/88] Updating : ruby ####################### [28/88]
What does this exactly mean, and what is the safe/right thing to do?
Thanks in advance, Marco
