I installed a minimal server configuration on RHEL6 and
I'm using LVM with a single virtual disk device. (This is
within a KVM VM.)
First item of business is to register with RHN and then run
yum update. That ran into a segmentation fault. I noticed
yum was one of the packages to be updated so
I've updated this and the kernel and rebooted.
It didn't fix the issues completely.
I now see this when doing a full update:

"yum clean all" didn't help resolve this as it sometimes does.
I noticed the complaint about multiple device-mapper-libs packages.
I elect to remove this one:
# rpm -e device-mapper-libs-1.02.53-8.el6_0.4.x86_64
Now yum update seems to run further, but another problem:

It sits like this hung for over three minutes. control-C has no impact.
kill -9 was required to stop yum update
This is pretty much "straight out of the box". Is there still QA being done
on Redhat Enterprise?
I mean, beyond the Fedora users?
