I try either to do some yum update or yum install for a package...
Setting up Update Process
Setting up Repos

and freezes
no error at message log or yum.log

Any idea?

I have Fedora COre 3

p.S.
How can I install a new version of rpm?
How can I install smooth a new version of binutils, gnu smooth?
