Hello,
Today i ran a yum update and installed kernel 2.6.18.53.1 from
centosplus. I then rebooted to ensure i was running it. I was and went to
remove the previous kernel and kernel-devel packages v2.6.18.53 also from
centosplus. In both cases yum gets to the running transaction check then
hangs, i don't get any errors it just sits there. I have to manually kill
the yum process to resolve this. This does not happen with any other package
add/removals. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Dave.

yum freezing when removing old kernel
Hi Dave,
I am experiencing the same problem on two of my systems running CentOS 5. I
get an error message after a long timeout, "could not retrieve mirrorlist".
Please let me know if you find a way around this problem.
Thanks,
David

try running yum with -d9, and see if the extra info gives you more info,
something that might help diagnose the issue. For issues such as 'could
not retrieve mirrorlist, I'd suspect a network issue .
Also, try not to top post, it makes it hard to make sense our of what
you are saying and how it relates to the previous email.
Thanks for the tip. Are you using an email reader that you can set to bottom
post automatically?
Thanks,
David

I use thunderbird and sometimes mutt, both can bottom post and quote
properly.

Most keyboards have both a page-down key and a down-arrow key. Either one will
work.

You are the one that answered a "please don't top-post" with a top-post, so I
figured it was fair game. Sorry 8-D

No problem ..... I was looking for a reader that would work with just
"reply" and also remove the text that is automatically inserted from
previous posts. I noticed that some posts had the CentOS mailing list
removed and did not know if that was manually deleted.
Thanks,
David

I'm using Thunderbird, and it can be set to top-post or bottom-post. I know I
manually trim fluff from messages when I reply, and usually trim the
signature, since it will be added again. It makes a message easier to read,
and if you hold shift and click on your insert point, it is very easy when
thunderbird is set to bottom-post.
