Howdy,

I have a NFS mounted /home filesystem and I notice the new RHEL5.3 
filesystem RPM will bomb out on install.  Yum doesn't notice this 
error and will say all things finished okey-dokey! :)

Any comments on this?

Yum will in fact notice the failure, if you retry yum update it will 
retry this fix.
