In a seperate window: repodata/repomd.xml from core: [errno 256] No more
mirrors to try.
Several of my files in /etc/yum.repos.d have been edited, and paths are
probably AFU, it might be best to just replace the default file so I know
they're good again, but there doesn't seem to be a net accessable set of
these files available that google can find. The yum rpm is empty in that
part of the tree. Bummer...
