Hi,

I am trying to install OEL 6-3 from a bootable image I downloaded from OTN. I am installing this onto a virgin x86 server that I have just placed a new ( empty ) hard drive into.

Things were going well until I got the error

Cannot retrieve repository metadata ( repomd.xml ) for repository : anaconda-UEK2
Please verify its path and try again.

There are 3 buttons available - Exit Installer, Edit and Retry
Retry obviously gets me nowhere
Edit seems to bring up a URL based search

However as I have stated this server is completely blank - so there is no way there is any proxy, DNS or anything set up yet.

Howdy, Stranger!
