I give up. I try to read as much as fast as I can to fill in my admitted newness to this stuff. I know I can custom build repos lists, etc. I use fastest mirror plugin and I use your mirror list. If there is a way for me to use the *standard* issued stuff and just add a single line that says augment that with local stuff first and then use (or don't use the standard stuff) if that fails, I missed it.
