Does that do what you want?

Sorry to say: No :( because I do not have my f27 new install on-line. It's wifi does not work as is because f27 does not include the drivers and the firmware for it's wifi Broadcom chipset. So there is no way.
Also, reposync will sync the OS version of the running OS. My networked machine runs an old fedora, so cannot sync up with f27.
If there is a way to do that, I would love to know the incantation.
Cheers,
JD
Have you considered using wget?.

Best,
rsync requires you to register with an account. I really DO NOT want to be a mirror, and it is not so straight-forward how to limit the mirroring to just the directory Packages of a certain release and architecture.

"Everything" ?
I don't know why you're making things so difficult.
On a system with a functional internet connection you can find out what packages are needed to install the broadcom-wl package from RPMfusion in one of 2 ways.
Way One
1. In a Virtual Machine boot the Live-OS of the spin installed on the laptop. 2. Install the RPMfusion repos to the Live-OS. 3. Issue the command dnf --downloadonly --downloaddir=/tmp install broadcom-wl 4. Transfer the downloaded rpm file to external media 5. Make sure that "kernel" packages downloaded match the kernel version on the laptop and if not download those from koji.
Way Two
1. Do the exact same as above but after installing the Live-OS in a VM
Way Three
1. Boot the Live-OS on bare metal and do the same as above

Packages such as "kernel-devel" and "kernel-headers" are not on the LiveOS ISO.

I do not understand why you throw up artificial barriers to progress. You're going to be downloading things to a flash drive and walk it over to the other system. So it isn't as if you're going to be short on space. Besides, "dependencies" are a dependency for a reason. If you ignore those and then try to install packages whose dependency you've ignored you are bound to run in to problems.
You spend more time raising irrelevant issues and then waiting for responses. Unless you are working on more than one machine, we know you now have one Wifi, the internal one, adapter being recognized by the system with the driver loaded.

You're just having problems with authentication to a router in a Starbucks. I've already made one suggestion which you've not followed up on. So, how about another? Take the machine to a different Wifi Router to where you have access and control over it.

Oh, and another reason for following the rule? The contents of a repo may have changed since the time the other person generated it.
In other words, always do the *work* yourself.

I am sorry for not checking your work before you continued.
For starters, if you look at the list I generated on 1/15 you'd see there is a single occurrence of akmod-wl and you've listed 2. That same list I gave on 1/15 does not contain kmod-wl while yours does.
You really need to pay attention to what you're doing. The best thing you can do is follow precise instructions.... Those instructions are in another email of 1/5 and are...
On a system with a functional internet connection you can find out what packages are needed to install the broadcom-wl package from RPMfusion in one of 2 ways.
Way One
1. In a Virtual Machine boot the Live-OS of the spin installed on the laptop. 2. Install the RPMfusion repos to the Live-OS. 3. Issue the command dnf --downloadonly --downloaddir=/tmp install broadcom-wl 4. Transfer the downloaded rpm file to external media 5. Make sure that "kernel" packages downloaded match the kernel version on the laptop and if not download those from koji.
Way Two
1. Do the exact same as above but after installing the Live-OS in a VM
Way Three
1. Boot the Live-OS on bare metal and do the same as above

All done and installed and all is well on my friend's f27 laptop. The snag I ran into had to do with the fact that the un-networked laptop, while trying to install the broadcom rpm and the dependencies, kept throwing me a curve: dnf kep saying it was unable to sync with the repositories: updates, fedora, rpmfusion....
How could it, since I was trying to install the very things that WOULD enable it to sync. So, before I gave up, I added the command argument: --disablerepo=* and lo and behold all the rpms in question got installed, and I rebooted, and the network was on. Ran updates. All is well.
Thanx a lot!!

Sorry for the delay JD got busy at the office -Terry
It's quite alright. At any rate, the fedora release packages would not have helped a lot, because the crucial packages had to come from rpmfusion in order to enable the functioning of the broadcom 4322 chipset. Cheers, JD

The snag I ran into had to do with the fact that the un-networked laptop, while trying to install the broadcom rpm and the dependencies, kept throwing me a curve: dnf kep saying it was unable to sync with the repositories: updates, fedora, rpmfusion.... How could it, since I was trying to install the very things that WOULD enable it to sync. So, before I gave up, I added the command argument: --disablerepo=* and lo and behold all the rpms in question got installed, and I rebooted, and the network was on. Ran updates. All is well. Thanx a lot!! _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org <mailto:users@lists.fedoraproject.org> To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org <mailto:users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org> JD I don't believe that the workstation ISO will have what you need, as it is a netinstall image. You will probably want the server image, I'm downloading that to check it now.
JD
The server iso has what you need,
Yes you are right, but it is too late now :)
I should have looked there myself :) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org

Note these packages are from updates. If the laptop system hasn't been updated one can use....
dnf --disablerepo updates --downloadonly --downloaddir=/tmp install broadcom-wl
to get....

After all this time, I was able to return to my friend's laptop and I was ready with all the rpms outlined by Ed.
They all installed, albeit, with the command option --disablerepo=* They all installed, (from external disk), and I rebooted. Network came up. I thought I was out of the woods and into a well mapped world. I did the update, and all the packages updated. No problems. I did a clean shutdown. That was yesterday. Today, I powered up the machine, and it proceeded to do fsck!!!! But I had done a clean install and a clcean shutdown!!! After fsck, I rebooted. AGAIN - machines started to do fsck. I waited, did another clean shutdown. AGAIN the machine ran fsck.... How in tarnation can I put an end to this? I had not experienced this on other machines running older versions of fedora. OK... that was the first problem today, Problem 2: Network will not come up!!!! :( :( :( I checked to make sure all the rpm packages that brought up the network were still there. And indeed they are. Yet the network will not come up :( I have to admit that I had not set up a proper firewall yesterday. The machine's firewall was still in it's "first install state" and I assume in a "promiscuous" configuration. I do not know, I am only guessing what could have happened and by what cause!!!
So, how do I proceed now? Should I re-install the rpms that first brought up the machine's wifi?
Hi,
what about using a FTP client with CLI to download the Repository- directories?
You could download them from one of the FTP morrors to an external HDD and run createrepo. Then you should be able to use them for installation.
If your problem is about WiFI not available, you could use an Ethernet cable and install, or you can install the developer packages, build the driver and everything should work. AFAIK GCC and the needed Devel- Packages are already included in the installation disk iomage.
Regards, Dirk

In my current situation, I would NEED to be able to download all the Packages, save them all on a thumb drive, and make yum use that as the repo, to fix my problems with a non-networked machined. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org
