Last night I updated my laptop to Fedora 8 (Werewolf) from Fedora 7. Updating process went well from the DVD. I rebooted the system and started doing a
yum updatewhich tried to get *.fc7.rpm updates from the repos. After trying few things a
yum clean allsolved the problem. daMaestro helped me to fix this. Then I opened Kmail in Gnome and the load average went to 22 , I took a screen shot after few seconds.
Other things went well, no wait!!, Amarok stopped playing my mp3 files :( .
