I've apparently gotten myself into somewhat of a bind. I've been trying to exclude various packages from the different repos, and while I *think* I've gotten a working configuration again, it it still pulling stuff in that I have excluded I think in the right repos, but things I have no use for whatsoever. Items like kernel-hugemem-devel, kernel-hugemem, and anything involving kernel development. I run a stock kernel and am not doing any building of any kind at this point. The machine is an i-686 machine, and a single processor. I'd be very much appreciative if someone could send me,, or post a proper repo config that points to the various exclude lines to get rid of some of the unnecessary files. It's taken me about 2 hours of modifying stuff to finally get a yum repo config to make it all the way thru. Any type of help here would be great! Thanking you in advance, Sam
