Fedora Core 5 Problems - Installing packages

nightfox
Whenever I try to install a package, I get the following error message in the shell:

QUOTE

Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process

updates
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: updates
Error: cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: updates


Thanks for any help trying to fix this!

Edit: This was linked to an ISP problem that I verified with a friend on the same ISP. Apparently they were having some problems because I also couldn't access SourceForge or Photobucket. They've seem to have fixed the problem. [N]F

lol, I let Firefox sit on this thread for a while and then everything was working again. It was probably off by a few seconds because I did one refresh right before I modified my post.

    From Live CD and actual installation (13)
    On my new computer, I decided to install Linux as I need it for development purposes. Wanting to
    take a shortcut, I tried using Wubi, the Windows-based Ubuntu Installer. Everything went fine as it
    installed. I restarted the system to find revalidation errors when booting. It kept on repeating
    the same thing over and over so I thought that the Wubi installation was corrupted or otherwise
    damaged. I downloaded Ubuntu 8.04 and burnt it onto a CD-R and tried that instead. I couldn't
    even boot into the Live CD session because the same error came up. It looked like this: ....

    Hi all, I tried to install Fedora Core 9 in a VmWare virtual machine under WinXP. I downloaded the

    This is due to a missing file, a corrupt package or corrupt media" Fine, I told to myself,

    installed a couple of versions of Red Hat, Unbuntu, Gentoox, GoblinX, and now a couple of versions
    of Fedora Core. The only thing all of these have in common is that installation is problematic at
    best. While most distributions of Linux include all the required software to set up a server, I

    fix the problem that cannot add/remove software without Internet conne (2)
    The add/remove software in Fedora 5 just does not work if you machine is not connected to the

    shows the welcome message too. Then comes the problem - when it issues a LIST command and tries to
    show me the default directory it gets stuck for a good while and then times out. This is happening
    for ANY and EVERY directory. At first I thought it must be something to do with the chmodding - so I
