Gang,
I'm looking for suggestions on this one....
Using yumex (yumex-2.0.1-1.fc6) to upgrade the following packages:

While running the transaction, kernel.i686 0:2.6.22.4-45.fc6 wants to be installed first.
However, the install wedges with the following "ps ax --forest" output:

Once it hits this point, there's no forward progress and none of the pids listed above
clock any time.
If it matters: "rpm -V mkinitrd" and "rpm -V nash" both say nothing's munged.

Yeah.. I know it's trying to write the /boot/initrd-2.6.22.4-45.fc6.img file, but why
is the process hanging?
Any help would be appreciated'idly,
