Use yum check-update to see what's available.
Try yum update $PACKAGENAME to just update one package plus dependencies.
To the best of my knowledge, you're most likely to get caught on kernel,
glibc, or x.org updates. If you can't get them in the time limit, then
you might have to do wget on those.
Bad luck.
