[Yum] Questions re desktop 150 miles away.

I am shortly going to be in the situation of installing Fedora Core 3 onto a
new desktop for my sister, which is then going to be located 150 miles
away, used intermittently and only to have short bursts of dialup internet
connectivity for emails only. The only means of updating it will be through
updates burnt onto a CD or DVD and posted to her.

Therefore, some questions;-
A - What folders do I need to copy to the CD for yum to use when updating
please?

B - What commands will have to be used at the command line to tell yum to
update from the CD please?

Hopefully thanks
Sharon.
