No, mirroring from a list of mirrors does not make sense because it is possible that the two mirrors are inconsistent. Think of what a Fedora mirror itself does -- it mirrors from one canonical source, this is what you want your mirrors to do also. reposync accepts various options to accept a number of retries, and it's also suggested that you try to find a fast mirror on your own. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
