All partitions? including /tmp and /var/tmp if they are separate partitions.
$ df -h

if i disable addons repo all is well
md5sum shows the primary.xml.gz file is the same as the one on working
machines
okay - then a simple test.
wget the primary.xml.gz from the addons repos on that machine.
do it at the prmpt then run
xmllint --noout primary.xml.gz
on failing machine
$ md5sum primary.xml.gz
1b53def5a5feaa75fd3b6732ed0de0d6 primary.xml.gz
$ xmllint --noout primary.xml.gz
primary.xml.gz:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
^
$ ls -l primary.xml.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 201 Oct 19 2009 primary.xml.gz
on working machine
$ md5sum primary.xml.gz
1b53def5a5feaa75fd3b6732ed0de0d6 primary.xml.gz
$ xmllint --noout primary.xml.gz
$ ls -l primary.xml.gz

maybe you have a weird proxycache in front of that system?
yes, yum does not work :)
it has been running as configured for several years
See - I like it when people say things like the above "running as configured
for years" - that's nice to hear.
i ran 'yum update' to update from 5.3 to 5.4
update had no problems
i performed the same update on several other machines and had no problem
all machines are configured pretty much the same
all machines are 32 bit
can you run a:
rpm -Va
look for anything _odd_
nothing significant
-sv
