Fedora up2date sucks and will do this. Check the little update icon to see what updates you need. Say it says you need the gimp update. Go to the command line and type "yum update gimp". Do this for all of your updates and they're be perfectly installed in around thirty minutes. Good luck.

I played around with Mandrake 9.2 for a while until a friend told me to give Fedora Core 1 a shot. (I agreed since Mandrake always crashed when I would try run a gzip command) I went to update Fedora after I had finish installing, it took me nearly eight hours to finish downloading the updates (in on cable, downloading these updates at about 2kB/s) When I FINALLY finished the download, the install stopped. It wouldn't even start, it simply stayed on the screen doing nothing. I tried this at least 4 times with the same results. I am wondering if there is anything I am doing wrong, and if so could someone give me some advice?
