Hello all,
I've just installed fedora (upgrading from RH9 and RH 7.3). I'm trying to setup a repository using yum and rsync. I have a few questions though however. I had the Core 1 CD's (that accompanied the Wide Open magazine) and installed from there. I was setting up the Yum repository and assumed that I should just mirror the latest core (along with its updates). However I started getting errors when trying to update from my repository. I checked the core 1 RPMS directory and the core 2 RPMS directory and noticed that a lot of the redhat-config utilities are not there, which leads me to my question at hand
Do I need both the core 1 and core 2 stuff or can I just go with the core 2 (and the redhat-config stuff is removed or has been repackaged). I'm setting this up internally with the hopes of using this as my ftp installation server.
I had been under the impression that one can do a full install from the latest core directory. Any help would be appreciated.
Don't understand what you are trying to do here. Yoy;ve installed FC1 - but want to setup yum repostitory for FC2? There are 2 different releases - keep them separate.
Or are you planning on upgrading to FC2 using yum?
