I'm seeing the following from some of my FC3 machines... on a

This site is a Mirror for:

Sounds like that repomd.xm1 file is corrupt. Make sure the first line
in that file begins with <. Or perhaps it is time to uninstall and
reinstall yum. FWIW, I'm not getting that error on my FC3 machine
using yum-2.2.2.0-fc3.
You can 'yum clean all' to clear the cache.
I get the same error as you do on occasion. Rerunning yum sometimes
clears it up.
Most likely because the next time you run yum, it picks a different
mirror site which does not suffer from this problem. I too have seen it
happen, and I'm also running yum-2.2.2.0-fc3 as well. Seems to be
specific to certain mirror sites.
