I am seeing the following behaviour on all my ix86 CentOS-5.5 hosts:

The step 2 download repeats until the maximum number of mirrors has been tried and then the update fails.

I had previously run yum clean all before attempting the update.

Can anyone enlighten me as to the cause and remedial action required?

The favour of a direct response is requested as I am a digest subscriber.

I have run into the same issue on both x86_64 and i386 boxes trying to yum update.
