You can use the same URL that you use in the sources file for up2date. A better way is to use the $releasever (instead of "1") and $basearch (instead of "i386" or "ppc") variables so that you don't have to worry to much about upgrades. > Any pointers.. > > Maybe there should be a page with the yum.conf entries for each of the > FC mirrors.. Most, if not all, mirrors have the same structure. I don't think it makes sense having a page with 4+ URLs for each mirror, for each release, all with the same path at the end. -- William Hooper
