I just installed CentOS 6. I tried running yum update and was having trouble getting that to work, so I tried yum clean all and now my situation seems even worse than before. Based upon what I pasted below, can someone please help me fix my yum repository? Thanks.

Once you run
yum clean all, try runningyum makecache. Also check which repositories are enabled now (not that conf files could be goofed up)yum repolist
