Put this line :

Is there away to recover the system I tried it on - if I run that command now I get
No match for argument: centos-stream-repos Error: Unable to find a match: centos-stream-repos
If I try to install centos-release-stream I get
Package centos-stream-release-8.4-1.el8.noarch is already installed.
I can't remove it because it would result in removing a protected package.
Oh well, a wipe and re-install tomorrow probably.
P.
sure .. you can manually add the one repo required to manually do the swap command ..
Or maybe just install this package and then remove the other one:
you want:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/centos-st...
installed first
Then remove centos-repos
Or you could manually create a CentOS-Stream-BaseOS.repo (you could even name it test.repo and remove it later once switched) this will work:
[baseos] name=CentOS Stream $releasever - BaseOS mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$stream&arch=$basearch&repo=Ba... #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/$contentdir/$stream/BaseOS/$basearch/os/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-centosofficial
in /etc/yum.repos.d/<somename>.repo
then once the distro-sync command works, remove <somaname.repo>
