some minutes ago i tried a dist-upgrade F14->F15 per yum on
a virtual machine with 512 MB RAM
not enough memory?
something goes terrible wrong here if yum needs hardware
with > 512 MB RAM without GUI, well since this is a test-machine
i can raise the memory, but there are many usecases for servers
with 512 MB they can not be updated with DVD/Preupgrade and
not need more memory for normal operations
