First, the NFS and hard disk installations don't work because the installer doesn't mount the iso files correctly. After installing, you will probably need to manually install sqlite and update yum. By "manually", I mean you can't use yum; download from the development directory and install using rpm commands. And then there is a problem with gdm that causes syslogd to go crazy and slows down your system a lot. So gdm should be the next thing you update. After that, your system will work a lot better and you can update the rest of your packages - several hundred megabytes worth. (I wish I had updated gdm before updating the rest of my packages; it was slooooow.) Fred
