[How To] Fix Fedora yum update [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404
If you are using Fedora 14 and trying to fetch updates for your system or install any new package, you might end up with error
[Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found Trying other mirror.
This is because Fedora 14 repositories are archived which means that the links have been changed.
So, its time to update your fedora repo files with the new links as specified below:
Update fedora.repo file with below contents:
