DNS is properly resolving the mirror and your the computer doing the update names. 2. You do not have a full /var/ or /tmp/ partition 3. You do not have a read only filesystem (usually due to a driver error ... full partitions will act the same way). Make sure you can write to /var/ and /tmp/ 4. Look at bandwidth to ensure it is not slow, look for a transparent webproxy in the path, etc.
