Hi Guys,

Been trying all day to update a clean install of FC1 using yum.

Gone tru the motions i.e saved page as in tmp, opened terminal, done the following

su -      #(then enter password)
cd /tmp
chown root:root yum.conf
cd /etc
mv yum.conf yum.conf.old
mv /tmp/yum.conf /etc

and type yum update. I get loads of failover and retygrab() failed for: messages.
Last message on line is [Errno 4] I0Error:HTTP Error 404: not found.


Can anyone help with this?

Regards, Duke

The last line says it all : not found :
you need to verify that the URL's in yum.conf are valid,copy - paste the URL into your browser and check it, if Error 404 pops up start deleting a directory from the end of the URL until one works then move forward to where your going.
I sometimes find that yum does not like '$releasever or $basearch'and use '1' and 'i386'instead.
