(that can take care of package dependencies too) If you copied rpm files from the DVD, you do not need to run createrepo because the repodata directory is included. Make sure your repodata directory is in /var/fc6 and add the line below to the file /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-core.repo so that yum points to your local rpms. baseurl=file:///var/fc6 Note the three slashes.
