[root@localhost ~]# yum install yum-fastestmirror -y

或

[root@localhost ~]# yum -y install wget   （注：在下载wget命令并安装)

Could not retrieve mirrorlist [url]http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=5&arch=i386&repo=os[/url] error was

不管是用上面还是用下面那命令都会出现那错误

原因：没有配置resolv.conf

解决方法:

到/etc目录下配置resolv.conf加入nameserver IP

保存再次运行上面命令就可以。
