In the new file you create, replace "$releasever" with the appropriate string for Fedora 13. You can find this by browsing the directory structure of any of the fedora repos. You would need to create 2 repo files, one for the F13 beta release[1], another for F13 updates[2]. The directory for release will be simpler to figure out if you can wait until the release of F13. Another (simpler) way to do this would be to download the F13 release rpm, and do $ rpm2cpio /path/to/F13-release.rpm |cpio -ivV The repo files should be in there. :) > Thanks! > > Kirk GL [1]http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/13-Beta/Fedora/ [2]http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/13/ -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
