Re: missing repo, no repomd, no metalink.xml

Since fedora releases about every 6 months and only supports two old releases you really need to upgrade either one version every 6 months or two releases in a yearly upgrade session. If you need to run a distro that is quite like fedora but can be kept for a longer time look at CentOS (pure RH

I figured out the problem. The gateway addresses need to be empty. If you delete the entry and create a new one you can use an empty gateway address. If you have an address in the field, including 0.0.0.0, you cannot save an empty gateway address. On Tue, Oct 6, 2015 at 5:56 PM, linux guy wrot
