Hi.
I am completely new in Linux and I'm trying to learn as much as I can while doing my job.
I am following directions from a wi-fi card vendor. In it, they require to download Fedora 13 to the laptop, which I have already done so. uname -a displays:
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i868.PAE #1.
The directions ask to update the kernel with "yum install kernel-PAE". While connected to the internet, when I type that, the following error comes up:
Loaded plugin : presto, refresh-packagekit
Error: cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora
Please verify its path and try again
What does it mean and what file do I need to update with the right path? Please, let me know what other information you need.
Thank you very much

One of the configured repositories failed (Fedora 20 - x86_64 - Updates),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:
1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working
upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
packages for the previous distribution release still work).
3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then
just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use
--enablerepo for temporary usage:
yum-config-manager --disable updates
4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.
Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
compromise:
yum-config-manager --save --setopt=updates.skip_if_unavailable=true
failu repodata/repomd.xml from updates: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

Hello Experts,
I would like to create a server which can act as a YUM repository of Oracle Linux 6.5 and CentOS 6.5. Also I would like other servers to access this repo via http. I am stucked here to understand how I can bring all "RPMs" in to "/repo/OracleLinux/OEL6/current/x86_64" and always keep it updated. I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks In Advance
