AFTER SENDING THE MESSAGE BELOW i SAW THAT THE ERROR MESSAGE LIST IS
SLIGHTLY IN ERROR. I HAVE REPLACED IT WITH THE CORRECTED ERROR LIST.
SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION

After installing updates In a fresh f10 system I no longer can run
preupgrade. I first get the output on the screen below:

[root at localhost yum.repos.d]# preupgrade 
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py:181: UserWarning: Use .preconf instead of passing args to _getConfig
  warnings.warn('Use .preconf instead of passing args to _getConfig')
Loaded plugins: blacklist, refresh-packagekit, whiteout
Repository 'updates' is missing name in configuration, using id


Then over the beginning update screen I get an error window that says:
Failed to get release information

This could be caused by a missing
network connection or a bad mirror.

Are the mirrors broken? I do have a network connection. What might be
wrong and how do I fix it?
