Hello.
I have Fedora installed (Core 1) and I just can't complete the update list.... Or because of service was reseted or, because the downloads are transfering at very low speed (and it's is not a problem with my connection...).
Can anyone tell me what is happening?
Too much people accessing the site, the updates or just....????
Thank you very much to all for your patience and dedication

Use a mirror server! kernel updates and the new FC2 test1 slow down the main server. Follow:

Good article Alexander.
I have a question. I have a local mirror that I create by rsync'ing with a mirror. This works very well to keep the 4 or 5 FC1 machines here updated. I notice that occasionally I seem to pick up a corrupt file from the mirror and I have to delete the rpm and re-rsync with another mirror to pick up a good version. My question is this, do mirrors self-correct in that they detect a difference in the file and pull down the correct version on their next sync or is it a user's responsibility to report it to the mirror's operator?
In my case the kernel source for the 2166 kernal was only 5M (should be around 40M) from zeniiia in the UK.
Kind regards,
Mike
