<br>> I don't think ability/inability to accessing internet with firefox has<br>> anything to do with this.<br><br>ok<br><br>> go to /etc/yum.repos.d as root and carefully<br>> check all the .repo files, specially
fedora-core.repo. the enabled<br>> flag should be 1; i.e. enabled=1<br>> and there shouldn't be a hash sign before mirrorlist sentence.<br><br>> check for the rest of the repos. also, leave the<br>> fedora-development.repo
as it is, otherwise your FC6 will become<br>> rawhide, i suppose :)<br><br>yes, i checked all, here is what i have found:<br><br>1. there are 3 types of things in any repo: [core], [core-debuginfo]<br>& [core-source]
<br>2. [core] is enabled in all repos whereas the other 2 are disables in all repos<br>3. in every repo, "baseurl" is commented-out (with #) whereas<br>"mirrorlist" is not.<br><br><br>amit, now what?<br>
