I've installed the key, and apt-0.5.15cnc6-3.rhfc3.ccrma. Then ran apt-get 
update, and apt-get dist-upgrade. 795MB on dial-up later, there are problems 
installing the updates, and planet kernels.  See below.

Strangely some of the updates, fonts 75dpi, and fonts 100dpi  for instance, 
don't show up on this list.

I've only installed apt from planetccrma manually before on FC1 and FC2, so am 
not sure about what has turned up in /etc/apt. I have sources.list.d (a 
directory). As stated the only uncommented list is the planet one. I have an 
apt.conf file in /etc/apt, but also another config file in a directory 
apt.conf.d and this file is named, planetccrma.conf. Might I be seeing a 
conflict between these 2 apt.conf files?

The / and /home partitions are really too small for FC3. Mandrake 10.0 had 
been on these before, and having spent nearly 5 days on dialup DLing the 
iso's, I wanted to give FC3 a go. There is 652.7MB of 5.4GB still free, and 
with under 300MB of extra disk space taken up when the updates are installed, 
I should still be within 5% of max in the / partition. Any suggestions 
appreciated.

Sorry for this not being strictly music. Nigel.
