Re: yum just download

I using Fedora core 7

is there any option in yum.conf to make the system just download and download the updates in /mnt/updates ?

What do you have there? /mnt is a place for mounting things. There should be no internal data files there. For a plain vanilla install there should be nothing in /mnt. It is just a traditional directory while FC7 and 4 and 6 use /media for removable drives and cards.
