Why do you enable repo [fedora]? I think the default repo is [rawhide]. [fedora] is probably not available yet. I will get the same error message if I enable [fedora].

ok still the same problem

[root@trantor Thanatos]# yum clean dbcache
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
0 sqlite files removed
[root@trantor Thanatos]# yum clean metadata
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
0 metadata files removed
0 sqlite files removed
0 metadata files removed
[root@trantor Thanatos]# yum repolist
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again

When i open software sources i see checked 2

fedora 9.92 -i386
fedora 9.92 -i386 -updates

or should i just check the 3 rawhide?
Rawhide-debug
rawhide-developmental
rawhide-source

With those 3 i could update, but should i use those 3 at the same time?

Sorry for this, is my first time with a beta :P\

Thanks for all

He / She / It needs to enable the [rawhide] section in fedora-rawhide.repo and disable the others.
The regular fedora ones will not work until F10 is officially released and there is an
official fedora-release-10 rpm installed to straighten out version numbers.

I have the exact same problem with my last update of Fedora 9 as follows:

Failure getting http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/updates/f9-updates.jktest/i386/repodata/repomd.xml:
Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: updates.

This looks like a general problem.
