    I had this same issue. On top of about a dozen others just getting
    started. I ran it several times before it seemed to get everything
    correctly. The nice thing is once it is downloaded, it did not download
    again. You might try running just a few of the packages instead of all
    of them. It didn't seem to really matter though.

    Subject: up2date hanging

    Hi folks,

    having got the network working I decided to run up2date.

    Having taken most of yesterday downloading (102 updates) I left it
    overnight.
    This afternoon when I returned to it, the download had finished and it
    needed me to click a button before proceeding (?).

    I clicked about 4 hours ago and then sat watching the hourglass. The
    hourglass is still spinning and it's time to go home again.

    Two questions

    1) should it take this long? (Celeron 700 with 120MB (8MB stolen by
    graphics
    card)

    2) if I kill it and start again, will it a) do better next time, and b)
    need to re-download everything.
