I recently accidentely override the content of the yum.conf and do not have a working backup. Can anyone hook me up with one that is meant of Fedora Core 2 conf file? After searching I can only find those that work with Fedora Core 1 conf if there is any different in the first place.
Thanks.

logan those you provide does not seems to work with core 2. I had tried them and the servers seems to be either not around or rejecting it.

Core 2 isn't released yet, please make sure you say "Core 2 test2" and not just Core 2. People who read this might mistake the test release for a stable release and we really don't want that.

Remember that third party repositories often don't support test releases, and I understand that as most people using test releases are people who know how to do things themselves, or so it should be.

Sometimes you have to replace $releasever in yum.conf with something else to make it work.
