Fedora Installation :: Installing F15 DVD - Repositories Require Network Access

Jul 17, 2011

I've tried to install FEdora 15 using the Fedora 15 DVD for i686 architecture. However, after the step where I chose the setup for GRUB boot options, I got this error: "Some of your repositories require network access but networking could not be setup" (or something similar). Then I only had the option to exit the installer, but after reboot there was no GRUB and I have no means even to boot back to Windows.

How to install Fedora without networking or is Fedora the only distro so messed up that this can't be done? I've tried the Live CD/USB version but that version has no C compiler to allow me to install networking drivers after install completes. Now I was told to try the full DVD, by the full DVD managed to mess up my computer completely.

Fedora Installation :: 11 "Some Of Software Repositories Require Networking"

Jul 10, 2009

I am completely new to Linux, so forgive me for possibly asking idiotic questions. I downloaded Fedora 11 through BitTorrent, and burned the ISO images to CD using the Active@ ISO burner. I then booted using the "low display driver" option, since the computer I am attempting to install on is fairly old. I also added the following options, which were the only way I could even get into Anaconda:

no-hlt
all-generic-ide
acpi=off

However, after loading Anaconda, selecting the "Use entire drive" option on the hard disk screen, it told me I needed a network connection for some software repositories. I have read that software repositories are meant to be downloaded after the installation, and I have not chosen to install any repositories at all. Why does it require a network connection to install from the CD?

Fedora :: Cannot Fully Access Repositories Behind Proxy ?

Jul 2, 2010

I have a problem accessing repositories behind my proxy. Another problem, I have no access for that installation right now, but I do remember what I did.

First, this is fresh install Fedora 13 with KDE. I manually added IP, subnet mask, DNS, to network manager. Then, manually added proxy settings to SystemSettings/ NetworkSettings/ Proxy. After that,

Also, in /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repos and i686.repos (I mean, Core repositories and Standard one) I commented out "fedora" address line, and uncommented "mirror".

Now I can, for example, yum install wine, but yum install unrar fails totally (not found), and yum install mc (midnight commander) shows error, where I can copy address or rpm, and make localinstall then.

Fedora Installation :: How Much Space Preupgrade Require In Boot Partition

Sep 19, 2009

I was impressed to be asked on Fedora 10 if I want to upgrade to Fedora 11 but the first time I tried I had this error:
Not enough space in /boot/upgrade to download install.img.

My boot partition is 99MB and AFAIK that is not unusual so I tried tidying up a bit, uninstalling all except 2 kernels, and now have about 80MB for whatever needs to be downloaded in /boot/upgrade. But I get the same error. I can fix this by using wired instead of wireless networking but I want to know for planning purposes (next time I create a boot partition) how much space is required?

$ ls -l /boot/upgrade
total 21594
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18985802 2009-06-03 00:02 initrd.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3035056 2009-06-03 00:02 vmlinuz
Should I delete these? It looks like they might be left over from last time but I assume preupgrade knows what is junk and what isn't.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Access Podcasts That Require ITunes?

Dec 16, 2010

I just found out about this tool this morning. I was having trouble accessing a podcast that required iTunes to be installed on your computer, probably to access iTunes store. I did a Google search and found Feed Flipper. It takes the podcast URL and "flips" it into an XML RSS feed. I was able to add the link from that conversion into Rhythmbox and it worked. Just thought I'd share if anybody was having a similar issue.

Fedora Installation :: Fc10 Cannot Access WINXP Through Network

May 28, 2009

I have a home network with 2 WINXP machines and one I am trying to load FC10 on. If I get FC10 to work, I will convert the others to FC10. I am trying to access the WINXP machines through my LAN. I have installed samba. I have gone through a lot of places to try to configure samba. Several places say I have to set the security level on the ethernet card using system-config-securitylevel. When I enter this in terminal, I get command not found. I checked with yum and it is installed. I have tried using the menus but cannot find it anywhere. I can see the FC workgroup from one of the WINXP machines but I cannot look into it. It says I don't have the right permissions. I would like to set it so I don't need a userid/password at all. Can I do this?

General :: No Network Access After Installing Suse 11.2?

I'm new to SUSE. I had some virus issues with Windows Vista and decided to change my OS.

I have the modem set up and still can't get the internet to come up. I get the mozilla blank webpage, but I am connected to the internet server. What can I do to get full internet access if everything seems to be working they way it should except for the blank webpage? I know I must be missing something but what?

Also, how do I open Yast to use it? I think I opened it by accident and got some things done

"yum install xen xen-kernel"

and after that i can't connect to the network if i ping my other servers there's no replay. i assume this have to do with Xen bridge. But since the tutorials dont mention any configuration needed, i assumed that it would work out of the box.

Fedora Installation :: Freezes While Looking For Repositories

Jun 1, 2010

Multiple install problems.

1. Installation freezes while looking for repositories. Have left overnight hoping installation would continue with no luck.
2. When it does find all the repositories it crashes with fatal error installing package XYZ. This could indicate errors when reading the installation media. Installation cannot continue.

Solutions tried.

1. First I though the download ISO was bad. Tested the ISO download with sha256sum checksum utility. Perfect download according to the checksum.
2. I tried 3 different DVD drives on system that Fedora is being installed to in hopes that maybe the DVD drive was bad.
3. I tried burning the ISO with two different DVD burners. One with windows 7 ISO burning utility. The other on windows XP using Nero 7.
4. Tried burning the disks at low speed to get a better burned disk.
5. I have tried 2 different brands of DVD disks
6. I have officially gone through 8 different DVD disks.

Fedora Installation :: Still 14 Repositories After Upgrade To F15?

But everything nothing changed, this is the output of yum repolist":

Fedora Installation :: F10 - Yum - Updates - Repositories - And Keys

Feb 8, 2009

I have what I suspect is a frequently encountered problem; indeed it may be an inevitable one. Moreover, I think that I know the solution to the problem. Let me explain.

History:
1. I downloaded f10 from the Fedora site.

2. I burned a DVD.

3. I installed f10 on my laptop using the DVD, and it seems to work correctly.

Symptoms:
4. I ran yum upgrade (as super user), and got the message 'No Packages marked for Update.'

5. I did the same thing for several days and got the same response.

6. I ran yum upgrade a* and got the same response. I thought that the mirror site might balk at large downloads.

Diagnosis:
From what I have read on the web I think the following is what happens.

What I will call the original repository-key system, the one that I downloaded and that is now on my DVD, is limited. It merely concerns the packages that are already on my DVD, and these packages are never changed in the original repository. Therefore, yum is working correctly and will always tell me that 'No Packages marked for Update.'

Cure:
There is a new repository-key system, and with it yum does real updates and upgrades. All I have to do is install the new repository-key system.

THE PROBLEM: ALTHOUGH I HAVE GOOGLED AND SEARCHED A LOT, I CANNOT FIND THE METHOD FOR GETTING AND INSTALLING THE NEW REPOSITORY-KEY SYSTEM IN F10. THERE MUST BE A SIMPLE STANDARDIZED METHOD. WHERE IS IT?

If the above is correct, then anyone who downloads and installs f10 as I did must face this problem.

OpenSUSE :: Possible To Access 11.1 Repositories For 11.0 Version?

Sep 11, 2010

On Package repositories - openSUSE quite a few useful repositories are listed, however, only for SuSE 11.1 and upwards. Is there a way to access the same repositories for 11.0? (E.g. Contrib, KDE:KDE3 etc.) I remember that in Ubuntu the repositories for outdated versions had been simply moved to a slower server but I could use them just the same even when my version was a few years old. It would be good to have this for OpenSuSE as well. (Especially that the version I'm working on is on my machine at work, so I cannot just upgrade it.)

Ubuntu :: Installing Opera From Repositories?

Apr 30, 2011

At the following link, the instructions do not state clearly what is to be entered where and in which order, but here is what I have done after some trial and error:-[URL]..

1. IN THE TERMINAL, enter wget -qO - [URL]..| sudo apt-key add -

2. System - Administration - Software Sources.
3. Click on the 'Other Software' tab.
3. Click the 'Add' button.
5. Copy and paste deb [URL]...stable non-free in the APT Line.
6. Click 'Add Source'.
7. Click 'Close'.
8. Click 'Reload'.

THEN BACK IN THE TERMINAL:-

9. Enter sudo apt-get update (press Enter)

10. Enter sudo apt-get install opera (press Enter)

My question is, the article also makes it seem as if Installing via repository is different to Installing via shell. Is this correct or is installing via shell just additional steps required as part of the installation from repository?

Debian :: No Access - No Repositories - Can't Get Gnome Or Xwindows

Jul 1, 2011

I just downloaded and installed netinst version debian 6.0.2.1. I've had ubuntu before, and several usb live versions...but I really wanted to learn how linux works, and it was suggested I get debian. I've been unable to get anything accomplished, other than the basic install. Can't get gnome, or xwindows. Seems to me like I need more repositories. Need a Desktop! But mostly, I guess, I need a browser so I can hook up to here!

My computer is:
Dell Latitude 2100
2gb ram
Broadcom BCM4312

I tried to get Xterm. Went su, then apt-get install xterm...it's able to 'read' everything, but then no matter *what* I try to install, I get this same answer : E: Unable to locate package xterm

So I research, and it seems like I'm lacking in repositories. Here's my sources.list. I made a backup. I'm having to *type* everything in, on this computer, until I can get a browser working on the linux machine. So if there are typos I have ethernet cable hookup. I know from past experience sometimes this broadcom wireless card can be a problem. For now, I just want *anything* to work, and get some kind of hookup, so I can finish installing. I've reinstalled 3 times, with iso...

Here's my sources.list. Until I hear from one of you'all, I'm gonna look for a better one, and then vi edit it in here...

Does Yast2 use a port other than port 80 to connect to the repositories? I have not updated the firewall since using Yast last. Have the repository servers been updated since the release of 11.3, to make some editing of the repositories in Yast necessary?

I went to other repositories, e.g. Mint and Ubuntu, and with these included in my sources.list file, I was able to install the desired programs.

If the programs are listed in Debian and the dependecies as well, why would they not install?
