Hi All,
an idiotic question, perhaps..? Really am stooped here. Can anyone put me outa me misery, as this code in the yum.conf produces errors..?
What errors are you getting?
Try un-indenting everything, and also checking out that the URLs you refer to actually exist:
[fedora-us-2] name=Fedora Core 2 -- Fedora US mirror baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.os
[fedora-us-2-updates] name=Fedora Core 2 updates -- Fedora US mirror baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.updates
[fedora-us-2-stable] name=Fedora Linux (stable) for Fedora Core 2 -- Fedora US mirror baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.stable

Looks like cut and paste problems.
Remove all spaces from the start of lines, and all spaces in the lines starting "baseurl"
