I have changed mine, but still get the same error how do I tell it to use t=
he mirror without running up2date in X (no X installed)

Thanks

Denis
  You haven't changed your up2date to point to another site ... other than =
whiteboxlinux.org ... edit the file:

  /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

  and put a # in front of the whiteboxlinux site (like this):

  #yum WBEL-3.0 http://whiteboxlinux.org/pub/3.0/en/os/i386
  #yum updates-released http://whiteboxlinux.org/pub/3.0/en/updates

  then download from a mirror, like this:

  yum WBEL-3.0 http://mirror.physics.ncsu.edu/pub/whitebox/3.0/en/os/i386
  yum updates-released http://mirror.physics.ncsu.edu/pub/whitebox/3.0/en/u=
pdates
