I have a FC4 linux box and used yum regularely until approximately a month ago.
I have similar issue than Siddharth Seth. When I run yum update I get:
Yum Version: 2.4.1
COMMAND: yum
Installroot: /
Setting up Update Process
Setting up repositories
Baseurl(s) for repo: ['http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/4/i386/os/']
Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: base
failure: repodata/repomd.xml from base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from base: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to
try.
I also tried the wget proposition made earlier by one member:
[root at bularung etc]# wget --inet4-only
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/4/i386/os/repodata/repomd.xml
--10:03:05--
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/4/i386/os/repodata/repomd.xml
=> `repomd.xml.2'

Resolving mirrors.kernel.org... failed: Name or service not known.
So it works for inet4 but not 6...
I'm looking for some help to fix this issue or a pointer to someone who has
fixed it already.
Thanks
