1) You need to replace "http://"; by "rsync://" in the URL, in order to use rsync. This is what caused the above error. 2) You need to pick a mirror that has rsync from the mirror list (most don't, including the one you're now using): http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/ -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
