I'm having some problems with the yum.conf file that was attached. When run it wants to download an athlon rpm to resolve some dependencies. I have an intel system. Obviously, this causes the upgrade to fail. Any ideas why this would occur? I went back to my old config and it didn't try the athlon download...but it didn't want to upgrade as many packages either. -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer
