Let me try to explain a bit more. In the past, the /var/cache/yum had directories for repos, like 'updates,' 'rawhide,' and 'updates-testing.' Now the structure is pushed down and looks like this. /var/cache/yum |-- i386 | `-- 12 | |-- adobe-linux-i386 | |-- fedora | |-- fedora-debuginfo | |-- installed | |-- rawhide | |-- rawhide-debuginfo I can't seem to export that in a way that the network installer will use it when I specify it as an additional repo. Note this was a handy example, I'm actually using FC13, both 32 and 64 bit. I don't know if the fault lies in the export or the createrepo, but it would speed upgrades no end if I could do things this way. > name=Fedora Local Repo > failovermethod=priority > baseurl=file:///Repo > enabled=1 > > While /Repo contains: > > $ ls /Repo > EFI isolinux repodata RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-13-SPARC RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc64 > GPL media.repo RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-i386 RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 > images Packages RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-13-primary RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc TRANS.TBL > > (It's just a copy of the distro DVD, so YMMV). > > poc > -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
