when I do,
$ sudo yum install preupgrade
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/i386/os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again
So again the obsolete http is culprit, as seen below.

Is it safe???
any ways, I'll back up the files and try it out.
>>But, these files should be a part of your fedora-release rpm....

I installed,
F10 realese RPM
fedora-release-10-1.narch.rpm
fedora-release-notes-10.0.1.noarch.rpm
acc to documentation, now I have to
$yum upgrade
which does not work, as show up.
