When I try to update from FC5 to FC6 I get this:
Error: hal conflicts with kernel < 2.6.17

However, when I do: uname -r I get:
2.6.19-1.2911.fc6
With yum list | grep kernel I get:

Try: rpm -qa | grep kernel and see what you get... and then you can: rpm -e <kernel sources you don't need ( older versions, less then 2.6.17)> -Brad

What kind of system do you have? Do you really need the FC5 kernels after you installed FC6?
Error: hal conflicts with kernel < 2.6.17 Error: autofs conflicts with kernel < 2.6.17
They only work with a kernel of 2.6.17 or higher
However, when I do: uname -r I get: 2.6.19-1.2911.fc6
This is your running kernel not the only kernel you have and the rpm system is smart enough to realise this.
kernel-smp.i686 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 installed
kernel-smp.i686 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5 installed
So you need to get rid of 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
Basically the packaging system has realised that if you choose to boot the old kernel 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 which you have installed and it let you update hal or autofs, then the result would not work.
If you know you have another kernel which does work then you can remove the 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 kernel.
Yes now it works, it is starting to update. However, new problem:
warning: /etc/passwd created as /etc/passwd.rpmnew warning: /usr/lib/security/classpath.security created as /usr/lib/security/classpath.security.rpmnew warning: /etc/pam.d/system-auth created as /etc/pam.d/system-auth.rpmnew
What does that actually mean? Could I just copy the passwd to passwd.bak and then rename passwd.rpmnew to passwd? And same for the others?

And now I get even more errors:

What does that mean? :/

Without any context I've no idea. You need to say where things appear and what you were typing when they did ?
I am doing an update from FC5 to FC6
