Thanks Alexander, I also moved the directory over to an alternate disk and put in a symbolic link. I found 3587 files in the up2date directory but it only has a few RPM files. Seems like a lot of information to keep around. I upgraded this system from Fedora Core 2 to Core 3 and applied the updates. I can't say that I'm very happy with the upgrade path. I lost the automount of CDROMs and some packages have some mysterious problems. I think I will back up my data the next time and "upgrade" by simply loading a new version and replacing the OS.
