Hi Listers, I have a box running rhel5.5 with a repository " /repo/rhel5.5/x86_64/ " containing the following directories:
- base-pkgs ( copy of DVD ) - epel - misc - extras ( empty directory ) - updates ( empty directory ) My /etc/yum.repos.d contains the following : - dvd.repo - epel.repo - misc.repo - extras.repo - updates.repo I then mounted the DVD and imported it into cobbler. This is what "cobbler list " shows: distros: rhel55-x86_64 rhel55-xen-x86_64 profiles: rhel55-x86_64 rhel55-xen-x86_64 systems: repos: rhel5.5-base-pkgs rhel5.5-epel rhel5.5-extras rhel5.5-misc rhel5.5-updates images: My questions are : 1. could I have imported the DVD from the repo tree ? 2. do I have to import the epel and misc directories from /repo/rhel5.5/x86_64 ? * do I use the same syntax that I used to import the DVD to import the epel and misc rpm's ? * will the import place the epel and misc files in the same ks_mirror location ? 3. do I have to change the current contents of my /etc/yum.repos.d to point to /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror or do I create a new repo just for cobbler and point it to the ks_mirror That's it for now. TIA for any advice and insight on how to set up cobbler.
