Re: yum is extremely slow

["Alan E. Davis" <lngndvs@xxxxxxxxx>]

So, there's a good question, Should I upgrade my new box to FC4? 
How would I go about it?  Disks or upgrade this system.  This
system was installed at the factory, and even though I've polluted it
with crude attempts at working with yum and rpm and apt, I am reluctant
to trash it.  I'd like to play with Ubuntu too, as I have had good
success with it on other systems.  However, I like FC3 so
far.  

Perhaps I can install separately an FC4.  This machine has been
set up at the factory with LVM, over one 74GB and one 250GB
drive.  As one Volume Group.  I assume I can shrink the VG, I
am new to LVM.  THen install on a different partition or different
VG?  I can't find any info on this in my cursory review of the LVM
HOWTO. 

Thanks for the information.  I thought Python might have something to do with it.

I believe FC3 has an older Python, and the newer yum was not backported
to the FC3 Python.

I might be wrong.
