[CentOS] Can't update CentOS 5.2
Hi, I've just installed a fresh CentOS 5.2 Now, I run yum update and I get: Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=5arch=i386repo=os error was [Errno 4] IOError: urlopen error (110, 'Connection timed out') Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: base. Please verify its path and try again I have Internet connection, but I cant ping mirrorlist.centos.org and http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=5arch=i386repo=os just stalls. Is there another mirror list and if so, how do I configure it ? Any help would be appreciated. Warm Regards, -- :wq!

Re: [CentOS] Can't update CentOS 5.2 (SOLVED)
Hi, I solved the problem. Just edited file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo and added cc=pt at the end of each repo. Like: repo=extrascc=pt Thus, I get a Portuguese repo. This can be made with all the countrie's TLD. They're using GEO-IP for about 100 repositories. We can override the system like I did.
