Dear all;
I am using the Fedora Core test 3 i386 on Intel Duo 2 Core on the spec of
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Gigabyte GA-965P-DS4 Rev3 Gigabyte GV-NX76G512P-RH Princeton PDD2/667-1GX2 (4GB memory) I/O DATA DVR-H42LEB HGST HDT725032VLA360 Scythe Goriki plug-in(450W power) ANTEC SOLO AINEX CVT-04 Owltech D353(B)/BOX
The installation of Fedora Core 6 i386 from DVD and Windows Vista Business (dual boot) was successful. However, I need the latest version of Fedora for the following reasons:
1: The Xen 3.0 of Fedora 6 is unstable and kernel-xen crashes and reboots. 2: I will install the Fedora Core in a computer lecture so that I have better use the nerwork installation, which I did at home.
The problem is, when I tried to network install via HTTP and set server redhat.download.fedoraproject.org and directory pub/fedora/linux/core/test/6.92/Prime/i386/os/, the following error is shown before starting the copying rpm files:
Unable to read package metadata. This may be due to a missing repodata directory. Please ensure that your install tree has been correctly generated. Cannot open/read reoind,xnk fuke fir reoisutiry:anaconda-base-200703261959.i386
The rescure disk was clean, so that it is not the problem of my CD-ROM. I also tried to change screen ALT+F2 and in the command line, "export http_proxy=cache.ks.prv:8080", but in vain.
Do you have any idea? My only hope is to copy the whole files of pub/fedora/linux/core/test/6.92/Prime/i386/os to a local network (HTTP or FTP inside ks.prv) and then do the network installation. But is there any other way to network install using proxy server in Fedora Core? I heard SUSE can do it.
I will appreciate it if you would give me some comment on this.
Yours Sincerely,
Makoto Sakurai
