Hi

Where may I find some YUM mirrors for Eastern U.S.?

Thanks much.

http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html the first 20-30 core mirrors

The only problem is to find the path, which to add into yum. It is described here http://www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraSources howto do that. But note, that every server has its own specialities, so the path might be a little different, so you have to play with the options.

If you want extra repros, then go to http://www.fedoratracker.org and search for them.

An example /etc/yum.conf file with mirrors is at http://fedorafaq.org/faq/samples/yum.conf.

We also are collecting examples here (http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1959).

In some cases you might have to uncomment some of the entries out by removing the #s in front.
