Hi,
i've just bought a cd-rom containing updated packages for Redhat9.0
It's structure is :
athlon
i386
i486
etc...
noarch
SRPMS
it is mounted on /mnt/cdrom.
I would like to ask yum to check that cdrom to update the packages
installed on the machine. First, is it possible ?
If so, I've added to the yum.conf file the following lines :
[local]
name=LocalStuff
baseurl=file:///mnt/cdrom/$basearch
But yum doesn't like that, and complains about the header.info file
missing.
Is it possible to do what I describe above ? Thanks. Francois
