I am running a clean install of Fedora Core 3 RC5, and would like assistance on getting yum update to work. My current error message is
Setting up Update Process Setting up Repo: base Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
(FC3RC5 is very slick, by the way. I am impressed.)

look in /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo and/or /etc/yum.conf for a [base] repo
see if there is no baseurl or no mirrorlist option under [base]
if not, put one, if there is one, see what it is resolving to.
yum -d 4 [command] will often help to know more about the problem. -sv

I am afraid I don't understand what is meant by [base]. I have four files in yum
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 233 Oct 28 10:34 fedora-devel.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 244 Oct 28 10:34 fedora.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 279 Nov 1 12:43 fedora-updates.repo -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 282 Oct 28 10:34 fedora-updates-testing.repo
my yum.conf looks like [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 retries=20 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=0
