<br>> Anoop<br><br>If you copied rpm files from the DVD, you do not need to run createrepo<br>because the repodata directory is included. But if you copied rpm's<br>from individual CD's, then you need to create the repodata by running
<br>createrepo. Either way, once you have them ready and suppose your<br>repodata directory is in /pathto/fc6, add this line to the .repo file:<br><br>baseurl=<a href="file:///pathto/fc6">file:///pathto/fc6</a><br><br>Note the three slashes.
