I'd try manually installing the latest kernel with "rpm -ivh ..." then upgrading the files with "rpm -Uvh ..." with --force and/or --nodeps if all else fails. Untested, and an update at around that time killed one of my system - had to do a fresh install - so be prepared for the worst. You could also try an anaconda upgrade to FC2 but that is, of course, unsupported. Phil
