[arch-mirrors] mirrorlist doesn't work

[Anthony Givens]

this is what i get
File not found

If you encounter errors trying to install an application, such as, "*error:
failed retrieving file 'foobar.pkg.tar.xz' from extra: Not Found*", this
invariably means one of two things: either your local database is
out-of-date and needs to be resynced with a '*pacman -Syyu*', or your
mirror is out of date and you need to choose one that is up-to-date. ok
what i did is i deleted the mirrorlist and was trying to download a new one
and i can't download it

at the time i didn't know you can do that my next question is how can i do
it in ROOT thank you
