Hi Gary:
I've got a reliable FC1 box myself at the office, so I'm using yum to
hit mirrors of the legacy support site. My yum.conf is posted at this site:
http://penguinsolutions.org/fedora/yum.conf
It's commented fairly well -- just look through the list of mirrors and
uncomment those that are closer to you.
Hope this helps,
Clint
