This time I did: cobbler import --mirror=rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386 --name=fedoracore6 which i think is as close to the example given as I can get. I still get the same error (though obviously it's looking for the comps.xml file in a slightly different location this time): Error: groupfile /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/fedoracore6/i386/os/repodata/comps.xml cannot be found.
