Greetings!
I have found this web page with Fedora mirrors:
http://www.fedora.us/wiki/FedoraMirrorList
Can I put more than 1 mirror in /etc/yum.conf? Does the order matter?
If a mirror does not respond, will yum try to connect to the next one?
I have yum RPMs downloads hanging in the middle of a download. How can I
use mirrors to avoid this?
Thanks for your kind help.
Enrico

Man once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against
absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without rudder, is the
