Here are some notes I wrote down when I wanted to install some SW from my DVD. Probably the simplest thing would be to go read http://fedoranews.org/cms/node/1055 which is what inspired this particular note. Hope this helps... --wpd
Thanks a ton, Patrick. That worked to get Yum to use the local core repository. I commented out the default baseurl and mirrorlist and added my own base URL. Initially it didn't work. I had to remove the comment from gpgkey (it was there by default). I did a groupinstall 'Development Tools'. The packages are installing now. Thanks again. -- Regards Vivek Registered Linux User #374218 Livin' The iLife ~ http://www.ilifenet.net
