In the first instance you are trying to import the updates and not the distro.
In the second case I don't know if the minimal distro is supported. This is the proper base for importing the latest (6.4): http://mirror.centos.org/centos-6/6.4/os/ If you want just 64bit then choose x86_64 Cheers, Harry On 09/09/2013 09:30 AM, Joost Ringoot wrote: > Hello, > > I am trying to set up cobbler for deploying centos6 machines (later on > maybe ubuntu) > > I have problems when I try to import a repository: > > This apparently copies the rpms, but then brutally fails: > [root@geppetto cobbler]# cobbler import --path=rsync:// > ftp.belnet.be/centos/6/updates/x86_64/Packages --name=centos-server-6.4 > task started: 2013-09-09_143420_import > task started (id=Media import, time=Mon Sep 9 14:34:20 2013) > No signature matched in /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos-server-6.4 > !!!
