Make repo directories in the any partition for example /opt with: mkdir -p fedora/os/i386/ mkdir -p fedora/updates/i386 Copy the os rpm packages from the cd’s to the fedora/os/i386, open the fedora/os and run the command: createrepo i386/ This well create the repodata directory with needed header files, copy the update rpm packages to the fedora/updates/i386, open the fedora/updates and run the commmand: createrepo i386/ To add these repos to yum, creat two files fedora.repo and updates.repo as shown below and put them in the /etc/yum.repos.d: Copy these lines to fedora.repo: [fedora] name=Fedora $releasever – $basearch baseurl=file:///opt/fedora/os/$basearch enabled=1 Copy these lines to updates.repo: [updates] name=Updates $releasever – $basearch baseurl=baseurl=file:///opt/fedora/updates/$basearch enabled=1 With rsync can synchronize the local updates with the remote updates directory in the fedora mirror, read rsync manual for details.
