Hi all,

I have an very old and cranky laptop that won't install past f14, used
mostly as a scanner/print station.

I'm trying to update some of its software using yum.  I created a repo,
fedora-archive.repo:

[archive]
name=Fedora 14 - i386
failovermethod=priority
baseurl=http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/14/Fedora/i386/os/


enabled=1
metadata_expire=7d
gpgcheck=1

Given this command:

   yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=fedora-archive.repo update -y

I think that should be "--enablerepo=archive" (name of the archive,
not the name of the repo file).

Rick, you're the man!

Command now completes with "No Packages marked for Update". Possibly indicates a never updated install.

Anybody have any idea where the archived *updates* repo may be?
