I absolutely did it myself in my haste to free up space. I tried (as root) the "mkdir /var/cache/yum" and got the following error message: "mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/cache/yum': No such file or directory" I'm guessing it may be because I'm running FC2 and not FC3, which has a new and different yum? Do you think I should just reinstall yum? > > BTW, I really do appreciate your help... ---- did you delete /var/cache itself? ls -l /var/cache if not found mkdir /var/cache mkdir /var/cache/yum might as well make /var/cache/alchemist and if you use samba (no doubt you would have noticed the effects of the delete if you do much at all with samba) /var/cache/samba Craig
