Hi Everyone; this is just my very first forun question, Installing fedora core was very smooth till I am on the 2nd part which is "Installing And Configuring The Rest Of The System" first I wasn't able to do this; "rpm -ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/fedora/linux/extras/4/i386/apt-0.5.15cnc7-6.fc4.i386.rpm" it had some error but thanks to some threads on this forun I was able to download it manually and installed it. I edited my sources.list as follows " # Add any local / 3rd party repositories here.. rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 core updates freshrpms rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 tupdates rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/1/i386 core updates freshrpms when I "apt -get update" this became somekind of first timers bad luck and it showed this errors.... 404 Not Found Ign http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/1/i386/updates release Err http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/1/i386/freshrpms pkglist 404 Not Found Ign http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/1/i386/freshrpms release Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/4/i386/base/pkglist.core 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/4/i386/base/pkglist.updates 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/4/i386/base/pkglist.freshrpms 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/4/i386/base/pkglist.tupdates 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/1/i386/base/pkglist.core 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/1/i386/base/pkglist.updates 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://ayo.freshrpms.net/fedora/linux/1/i386/base/pkglist.freshrpms 404 Not Found Reading Package Lists...

If apt is not working for you, you can use yum instead. The syntax is the same, instead of Code: apt-get install <package_name> you run Code: yum install <package_name> And instead of imap you install dovecot on page 4 - imap isn't available through yum on FC4.
