Hi, The error means that the yum module was not actually installed into the python path. I think you would be best served by removing whatever yum 2.4 rpm you installed and getting the yum RPM that was distributed with FC3 from one of the mirrors and installing that: rpm -e yourcurrentyumpakcagename wget ftp://linux.nssl.noaa.gov/fedora/core/3/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/yum-2.1.11-3.noarch.rpm rpm -i yum-2.1.11-3.noarch.rpm If you really really really want yum 2.4 then you can download the yum 2.4 binary from the yum website, rpmbuild --rebuild it, and then rpm -i that file. However, I believe that you will then need to hand edit the yum.conf and yum.repos.d entries to fit your machine.
