各大镜像站只有最新版本目录有内容，其他版本目录下仅有readme文件
下载的CentOS-Base.repo文件，放到/etc/yum.repos.d/下都用不了
在readme文件中发现http://vault.centos.org/网站是有各个版本镜像的
备份原来的文件
mv /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo.backup
重新编辑yum源配置文件 写入如下内容 本文档以5.5版本为例 ，如是其他版本如5.8 ，可以利用txt记事本 查找替换 把5.5替换为对应的版本即可
vi /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
