I wanted to use a REDHAT 6 install disk as a Yum Repository since I did not plan on registering the system I built for practice. Specifically I wanted to install x windows and a desktop after building the server without them.
Mount the install dvd:
mkdir /mnt/rhel_disc (use whatever you want but make sure it matches the config file below on the line named “baseurl”.)
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/rhel_disc
Create the config file dvd.repo at /etc/yum.repos.d
and add these lines:
[base]
name=CDROM
baseurl=file:///mnt/rhel_disc/Server
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-release
Thats it, now yum away.
