I tried to update today and ran into a strange problem. After 1.2GByte
of updates were downloaded and the updating started at some point things
didn't continue;

  Updating  : mkinitrd                     ################### [ 994/2526]
  Installing: kernel                       ################### [ 995/2526]

At this point nash was using 100% CPU, i let it run for +30mins but no
change, than i killed it with CTRL-c.

When i tried to update the kernel after that it said there where no
updates, becuase it was already installed. This seems weird to me
because the %post part of the RPM was not finished correctly and still
rpm thinks the update was done. After rpm -e the last half updated
kernel i tried again with just "yum update kernel" and it hung again
with nash at 100% CPU. 

What is the cause of this problem ?
