Hi all,
I just installed FC5 from the DVD iso and when I go to the add/remove
software option, the package manager opens up but gives an error
saying unable to retrieve software information. The DVD is in the
drive, and the only option is to click OK and then the program closes
out. The machine is not currently connected to the internet.
What am I doing wrong here?? :)
Thanks!
Pirut and pup use internet yum repos by default. You can add a file
/etc/yum.repos.d/local.repo with the baseurl of your DVD/CD drive, and
disable the rest (enabled=0), if you really want to install stuff from
there.
