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

particular note.

Hope this helps...

6) Found http://fedoranews.org/cms/node/1055, which describes how to
   force pirut to use the installation CDs instead of network
   repositories.  Based on that, I commented out the following line
   from /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-core.repo:

mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-$releasever

   and replaced it with:

## Changed by wpd 07/17/06 to load from the DVD instead of the network
baseurl=file:///media/disk

   But pirut still seemed to look for the network.  Some more
   tweaking is in order.

There's also this article that I wrote, which covers FC3 and FC4 as well as FC5, and also the use of CD ISO images if you have those instead of the DVD ISO:
