I get the same thing. I tried configuring to use a mirror by adding some new repos to my yum.repos.d directory, and got the same error from that repository. Is this the right way to configure using a mirror? /etc/yum.repos.d/wisc-base.repo: [wisconsinbase] name=Wisconsin Mirror baseurl=ftp://mirror.services.wisc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/yellowdog/yum /5.0/base/ enabled=1 Then I added wisc-extras.repo and wisc-update.repo the same way. I got the URL to the repo out of the MIRRORS file off of ftp.yellowdoglinux.com.
