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.
