Description Adam Williamson 2014-12-10 19:51:21 UTC
'man virt-install' has this:

         Fedora/Red Hat Based
             http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/18/Fedora/x86_64/os

this URL scheme doesn't work for F21; the Fedora/ tree doesn't exist any more. The 'canonical' location for install images and similar for F21 is the Server/ tree:

http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/21/Server/x86_64/os

the Server/ tree doesn't exist prior to F21, obviously, so unfortunately the docs might have to list both locations :/

The mirror manager repo "fedora-install-XX" is consistent - you can use "fedora-install-20" or "fedora-install-21" with mirrormanager and get redirected to the correct source of 'install'-type images in both cases - but I tested and it doesn't look like you can use mirror manager URLs for retrieving the installer image, the dracut bits don't handle it.
