Greetings ... Got a few questions, hope that they make sense ... First, is there a way to "package" the headers, so that I don't have to wait almost an hour to do my first "yum check-update"? I could also save a little bandwidth if I could put the basic headers in place before an update ... Another question, would it not be better to just download the headers for the packages install on a PC that one would be doing an update on? I ask these question, because bandwidth in South Africa is like water in Mexico ( please don't flame me, it just sound poetic ), expensive and hard to find quality ... if there are anyways to reduce bandwidth requirments I am all ears ... and I am sure that the mirrors and hosts for yum repo's would welcome any help as well ... Thanks Mailed Lee
