I will start this post by giving some general information of the operating system I use, it's Redstar OS 3.0 installed from ISO on a Toshiba windows 7 laptop. I formatted it and installed Redstar from a bot-able USB drive, fixed root access, Ethernet and got the language to work in English.

this for fixing root and language

system information, kernel etc
Why I posted on this forum is that Redstar is Linux based on Redhat and Fedora and uses Yum as an installing manager. I hope someone can give me a quick answer to what is wrong and how to fix it. I think you just need to know Yum to fix it but I am very unsure.
Here are the error messages I get when I try to use yum, when I either try to update it or try to install essentials this happens:
---------------------------------
[root@localhost ~]# sudo yum update
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/iniparse/ini.py:46:
DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
from sets import
Set
Options Error: Error parsing '/media/REDSTAR DES//': URL must be http, ftp, file or https not ""
and:
[root@localhost ~]# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/iniparse/ini.py:46: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
from sets import
Set
Options Error: Error parsing '/media/REDSTAR DES//': URL must be http, ftp, file or https not ""
------------------------
If you wonder why my computer name is localhost, is just because it's the default name the computer get's after changing to Redstar. I need essensials for getting iw-4.1 to work but the program that I need to run Iw with, Libln-3.2.2.5 need a c compiler that, I try to install with Yum but it refuses to work, I always get the last part of the error message and I don't know what /media/REDSTAR DES//`.
I have tried some fixes like these ones:
To enable software installation run:
mv /etc/yum/repos.d/rs-03000.repo /etc/yum/repos.d/rs-03000.off (causes yum errors)
Download fedora-upgrade-21.2-1.fc21.noarch.rpm, fedora-release-21-2.noarch.rpm, and fedora-repos-21-2.noarch.rpm from
http://ftp.heanet(dot)ie/pub/fedora/...os/Packages/f/ and run:
yum install fedora-upgrade-21.2-1.fc21.noarch.rpm
yum install fedora-release-21-2.noarch.rpm
yum install fedora-repos-21-2.noarch.rpm
yum update
In case of error: yum clean all

It doesn't work for me, Get the same error message as the one posted above.
This is what I need a c compiler:

And this is what I try to accomplish:

Getting Redstar to run as WiFi internet, since my laptop has built in WiFi and Bluetooth support.
Hope the post is not too messy and the English is readable, hope someone can give me some advise, either how to reinstall yum or remove the error messages. I would prefer not to get any questions about why I use this system but if you need more information about the software I can try my best to give it.
