Hello!
I've been using FC3 for a while and recently I've had to format my disk. Since every time I update my system I save the downloaded files to dvd is there a way to install these upgrades without having to download them from the Internet again? I know there is a way to update the distribution Cd's by rebuilding them but i wanted something easier than that like modifying the web server of "up2date" and instead of using the web to update the core it would get them on the dvd. Can you please help me?
Best regards, Paulo Lino
The way I do it is to just place the updated packages in the
/var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages/
directory and run
# yum update
That way yum'll take care of the upgrading issues and you still get to save yourself the trouble of having to redownload all the stuff ..
