The error message is self-explanatory. Open the FTP directory with your favourite web browser to discover that it doesn't contain the "headers" directory, whereas the primary server contains it. The mirror is faulty. It only contains the "repodata" directory for a much newer version of Yum. Contact the mirror maintainer or find a working mirror. -- Fedora Core release 2 (Tettnang) - Linux 2.6.9-1.2_FC2 loadavg: 0.40 0.14 0.04
