Re: Upgrading Tao remotely

My first attempt failed.

I was doing the update in a screen session. yum update takes about 40 
minutes before it starts to do anything (on an Athlon 800 Mhz) then it 
started upgrading.

I disconnected the screen and tried to re-connect later and I cannot 
reconnect to the screen. Yum also seems to be broken now.

[root@desktop ~]# yum update
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
     import yummain
   File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
     import yum
ImportError: No module named yum

I guess I will nuke the boxes and re-install.

I suppose that the upgrade process on a x86_64 box will be even more 
complicated?
