Any idea how I can ensure a more appropriate selection of mirrors in the absence of any in India? how about installing the yum-fastestmirror plugin ? that way, it will speed test the mirrors and give you what should be the fastest one for your connection. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
[ilugd] Fedora Mirror Selection

Any idea how I can ensure a more appropriate selection of mirrors in the absence of any in India?
