Bill -

I did remove some of the older files (only a few) and there was then enough room to unpack the update.  Is there some basic guideline on how many to remove?

When doing my updates, I got this message:

error: unpacking of archive failed on

Unfortunately, I installed Centos 4 about two years ago on my server
that sits in the corner and does it's job of faithfully providing
services without me touching it except to run a backup script and do a
YUM update every week so.  The result is that I have forgotten my
Linux know how!
    

Out of space? do a df and df -i on the file system and see if the space
looks tight. If so, cleaning out some cruft might help. Also, if /boot
is mounted read-only I guess that could cause it.

  
Help!
