Thanks for the reply. I had tried as root and it still didn't work but when I
typed the full path it worked fine (with the alteration of update rather than
upgrade :) )
But then I got this after choosing the mirror:
"Enter the number of your selection: 5
Reading RPM database... (100%)
Performing dependencies sanity check...
Error: Unable to satisfy dependency libgimp.so.1 for package xmorph"
and it apprently terminated the session as I was back at a command line prompt.
