[Spacewalk-list] JPackage repo problem when installing Spacewalk

[Mike Wilson]

The other day I was able to install using a mirror in Poland. I believe it
was pbone.net. Unfortuntately I no longer have the full url. I found it by
going through the mirror list at jpackage.org that google had cached. The
other mirrors seemed to all be empty, but this one worked. I wish I had
kept the full url.
