Problems with upgrade to 8.0



hi all:

i am attempting to do an upgrade to 8.0 from 7.2 on one of my workstations. 
unfortunately, when it starts to look for the packages to upgrade, i the 
following error (regardless of the boot type: linux or linux text)

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 632, in nextClicked
    self.dispatch.gotoNext()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 150, in gotoNext
    self.moveStep()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 215, in moveStep
    rc = apply(func, self.bindArgs(args))
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/upgrade.py", line 349, in upgradeFindPackages
    id.hdList[package[rpm.RPMTAG_NAME]].select()
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/comps.py", line 171, in __getitem__
    return self.packages[item]
KeyError: kernel-smp


anyone know the fix for his problem????

my system is an Asus P5A with a 550 Mhz AMD, 3 - 256 Mbyte SIMMS, 2 Adaptec 
SCSI Controllers ( one for for 4 drives and a CDROM, the other for the SCSI 
flatbed scanner), a generic sound card, 3Com 3c905c-tx network card and a 
Matrox Mystique video card.

any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
