why am i not surprised. :-D

what got bombed was originally installed as 4.5 via dvd. so i have
not had 'joy' of knowing the problems of a fresh install in a while.

i am glad to say that by chance, day before problems i did run a
'yum list installed'. i am about 40% of getting system back to where
it was.

is there an easy way of running yum from a list instead of entering package
names? entering names in groups of 5 to avoid problems is a bit slow.

something else interesting about fresh install, i installed 6.5 dvd1 on
my laptop without any problems.
