I managed to upgrade the system using the Internet until everything was at "0
updates needed". It was still VERY slow and I had a few times where the
system froze completely, necessitating a press of the reset button.
This crash sounds like it could be the Fedora SMP kernel issue that has
been discussed on this list and RedHat's bugzilla. You might want to see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109497
Also look a the thread about
Re: System lockup with SMP Kernel.
As for the running slow, that is a different problem.
