At this stage yum is resolving dependencies (i think) or running rpm transaction before actual package installation starts. I've seen similar behavior on ia64 in the past. IIRC there was something about yum and memory which was causing it to run slowly. Try RHEL 5.2 or another architecture (32bit if possible) with the same package set and partitioning to see if there's change in the speed. Also try Fedora 9 which has newer version of yum. - -- Alexander. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Red Hat - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFImXWzhmd3WOiFct4RClzhAJ9oiVgLUixyBQ2dyr0iIYRHxjuBEQCgkLO9 c4wIcSknChg5QD0M2v6vo2E= =4XXj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
