I have some questions about the "Continious Repo".
Does the "Continious Repo" replace the Centos-Base/Updates repo?
No. See http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2011-August/017689.html . The CR repo is just a way to get faster access to updates that are the next point release.
Point releases land in the 'Base' repo. *Between* point releases there would be updates in the Updates repo. That seems to have stopped for CentOS 5. That is what I mean.
Is the "Continious Repo" in a standard place on the CentOS mirrors?
Seems to be at least on some mirrors:
http://centos.arcticnetwork.ca/5/cr/ http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/5/cr/ Etc.
Yes, I just tried it on the mirror I sync with and it appears to work.
