@Marinerdevil Hello again. First of I think there may well be some clue as to why the update is failing in the following log:
less /var/log/yum.log
pageup and pagedown keys and ‘q’ key to quit: for others less familiar with the less command.
As a quick promo of a recent contribution by @Flyer as of 3.8-13.11 testing channel there is now a fancy log viewer in System - Logs Manager so if all goes well this should end up in the next stable release to come out.
That should give us some clue at least. If it’s not an obvious sort then do paste what you thing looks relevant here so we can get more eyes on it.
On the kernel front we have several reports of more reliability in boot on the 4.2 than the 4.4, especially when booting from a USB device. The hope is that soon we will move to something >= 4.5 but this hasn’t happened just yet.
Hope that helps.
