Re: [CentOS] fasttest mirror -doesnt seem to pick sites near my region

...

my repos are configured to use mirrorlist. how do i add mirrors manually?

If you take a look in /etc/yum.repos.d/ you will see a number of files. There should be example baseurl lines in the repo files which will be commented out by default. Here's an example of how I use this to manually use my local ISPs mirror for the base repo:

[base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base #mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&rep... baseurl=ftp://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=ftp://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
