They've made some major mistake during development. They appearently assumed they could have one single 'redirect' file on download.fedoraproject.org to redirect anyone to a random set of mirrors, but instead of mirrors this file only replies with the single download.fedoraproject.org mirror... :/ >From what I read on the development list, I assume you could adjust your /etc/yum.repos.d files to use the mirrorlist: http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-5-redirect as http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-5 only replies with the http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/$ARCH/os/ mirror Kind regards, Jeroen van Meeuwen -- kanarip
