I have an FC-5 computer last updated about a week ago.

Now yum update goes as far as starting to "Setting up repositories"


and then at:

atrpms     : ################################         515/654

Everything stops and I lose control, can't do anything from the keyboard, have to press the reset button to reboot.

I don't know what to try next? I have never had any problems with yum ... it has always worked without problems.

Anything show up in /var/log/messages?

Have you run memtest86 lately?

I didn't find any clue in the log messages but I did shut the box down and pulled out the three memory strips and reseated each in turn. Switched power back on and it is presently updating 75 packages. Did I fix anything? I don't know but it appears to be working normally again.

Thanks for the suggestions.
