Thanks, this helps me better understand your original statement as I 
wasn't certain why you mentioned it before.

I ran a test by firing up a second F12 system that is even more out of 
date. When I was able to log in, it took at least 15 minutes for 
PackageKit to tell me I had 600 updates ready. I think what happened the 
first time was that I immediately ran "yum update" and it only had time 
to know it needed flash, after which your statement of 1.5 hours came 
into play and I didn't get the rest until it checked again.

Its only a guess on my part, but it sure seems to match up with the 
information you provided.

I appreciate your help in better educating me about yum,
Thanks,
Paul
