I don't seem to be able to find a yum option to not download everything before installing anything. Thus, before upgrading has begun, yum has reduced freespace to 10%, and transaction check thinks it needs more than what was required before beginning to proceed with the upgrade. Freespace before trying to upgrade was 21%, which I would expect to change no more than nominally as a result of upgrading. Is there no such option?
Hi: Do you've any space somewhere else? In some cases I've moved /var/cache/yum to a different filesystem (in my case I've /home separated and with enough disk space) then create a symlink to the original position and finally launch the updater.
Hope it works
Kind regards
