FC5 returns

Yesterday I did a live, or manual upgrade from FC4 to FC5 on the system that runs the laptop that runs the llamacam. By live, I mean that I didn't use anaconda, or the CD, but instead just used yum while FC4 was still live and running. I've done a few of these on some systems at work, but this was the first that I've done at home. The steps were fairly simple:
* Manually upgrade to the FC5 fedora-release RPM
* Run "yum update yum"
* Run "yum update" and wait a long time
