I'm using yam - for which many thanks - to download Fedora-3 updates on my desktop by a nightly cron job. I then run "yum update" on each of the machines on my little home LAN. This works perfectly. But I notice that yam has "mount -o loop" my Fedora-3 ISO's, ============================================== [tim@alfred disc1]$ ls /var/www/yam/fc3-i386/ disc1 disc2 disc3 disc4 iso ============================================== and I'm wondering if I should be using these as the core repository on the various machines? If so, should I just list the 4 directories in fedora.repo? Any enlightenment gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
