Is anyone else having problems updating their systems via RedCarpet? I'm trying to update only three packages at a time (because I'm being limited to 5KB/sec on RC's end) and right now, I'm not able to even start the process of retrieving those files (whether I run it as root or a priviledged RC user).
REd carpet pulled all of the desired packages that I requested. I ran the verify system utility first. My system was rweally messed up from updating to RH9 from RH8, via up2date.
I did have a problem once with having to install the old red carpet rpm. For some unknown reason, it errored on coming up.
I'm using a cable modem and the connections were fairly decent, at the time that I installed the program.
You might want to verify your system dependacies first. Then try to retrieve some programs again.
BTW - I haven't used RC much lately. Getting my system dependacies corrected was my major goal. It worked, to my astonishment.
Later,

I did a clean install of RH9. It ran for several hours after the install, then I closed it, reopened, downloaded and installed some more software, and planned on using the slow but reliable method of upgrading to my previous level of software because I was only d/loading at 1-5KB/sec and I'm on a cable modem as well.
