I too ran into problems with yum, but was able to reduce them by running yum check-update to find packages that need updating and then doing a yum install <singlepackage> for each of the packages returned by the check-update. I'm not sure if that really makes sense and was helping or if it was just a concidence that yum ran faster on those packages. Greg
