Would somebody please explain to the technically challenged how to do that?
My upgrades from FC2 and Fc3 went fine; I did FC1, hit exactly that error,
and have been retrying ever since, for almost 24 hours.
Fwiw, I still have an /etc/yum.conf from FC1.
Up2date also fails.
Is the server really still out??
Or is something else wrong on my end?
