The link I'm looking at assumes you have a valid livna.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d. I have made one there that looks like this: [livna stable] name=livna.org - Fedora compatible packages (stable) baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/yum/stable baseurl=http://livna.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/yum/stable gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 But, I get this when I run the yum install: [root@diablo yum.repos.d]# yum install kernel-module-ntfs-$(uname -r) Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories core [1/4] extras [2/4] updates [3/4] livna stable [4/4] http://livna.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/5/i386/yum/stable/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 345 Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2006 11:57:57 GMT Server: lighttpd/1.4.11 Trying other mirror. Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: livna stable failure: repodata/repomd.xml from livna stable: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from livna stable: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. That livna.repo is the same as that section of my yum.conf I use here on this FC2 (more or less) machine. But I see by looking at the other files that they also specify a gpgkey=pathlist, and mine doesn't, and as they are all different, I've ndi what to put in for that line. >On your Windows root drive, you may find your broadcom drivers in the >folder /SWSetup/WLAN1 -- in my case they take the form: >bcmwl5.inf >bcmwl5.sys >If you don't have the above folder on your hp, you could probably do a > search on bcm* on your Windows drive and find them.
