This is a continuation of the thread:
"yum update fails: CentOS 5.2".
I installed a fresh Centos 5.2 and ran yum update.
It ran correctly, except for these issues:
1. As previously mentioned, after deciding what it
is going to do, It doesn't ask if its ok. But
if I type y<enter> it reports:
Is this ok [y/N]: Downloading Packages:
2. During the long period it is downloading files,
it doesn't print anything, giving the impression
that nothing is happening. Watching the lights,
and using WireShark and ARIN, I determined that
it was downloading from the Rochester Institute
of Technology. I decided that was good. During
the install phase, the expected logging appeared.
3. When it said it was finished, it didn't exit the
yum process; I did it with CRTL-C .
Mike.
