run this command to see if it throws any error

strace yum install kernel-smp

**Zion Ahead** · 04-13-2007 08:47 AM

It scrolled forever rapidly and last line read

Try clearing all the metadata:

Code:

yum clean all

Then try the install.

**cpanelkenneth** · 04-13-2007 09:17 AM

Which Linux distribution are you using?

**Zion Ahead** · 04-13-2007 09:22 AM

Same error after I did the clean

**Zion Ahead** · 04-13-2007 09:49 AM

centos 4.4 32bit version
