    I have a symlink like
    # mv /var/cache/yum /var/cache/yum.old
    # mkdir /var/cache/yum
    # cd /var/cache/yum
    # mkdir -p /home/var/cache //whereever you have place enough
    # ln -s /home/var/cache /var/yum /home/var/cache/yum
    # cd /var/cache/yum.old
    # find . | cpio -dumpv /home/var/cache
