Hi, I am running fedora 5 and fedora 6 on vmware at the same host machine. I could get on the internet from fedora 6. However, if I tried to get to www.gmail.com, firefox just timed out. I do not have any problem on fedora 5. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? At the same time, I still could not use yum to update the fedora 6. The error message is: Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrolist?repo=core-6&arch=i386 error was [Error 4] IOError: <ulropen error (110, .....)> Error: cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: core Could any help to fix this also? I really need to get the kernel-devel package to compile the vmtoolbox.
You do not need internet access to get the base version of kernel-devel. Have vmware mount either the .iso file or allocate a physical CD/DVD drive for the FC6 client. In FC6 open a terminal. Mount the CD/DVD. Use rpm to install kernel-devel. Before you unmount the CD/DVD make sure that you have installed the C/C++ development packages.
Thanks Frank
