Maybe the problem is in yum, since it sees all the repos, it should know that the files in my local repo are the same with the others but it choose to use the *offcial* ones and starts the download. why when they've been already donwloaded?
Maybe. I have the entire repos locally and have yum configured to use the local repos as well. So that might be why things work for me and don't for you.
Let me clarify something:
I've downloaded all the necessry file to my repo1. in the ks file I've specified some other repos (from the internet) so that when creating the live image yum can compare the downloaded with the internet packages and choose the latest. After this I move the cached to repo1.
This means on run1 yum should download only the updated packges and make the iso image. on run2 (for instance 2 hours later) it shoud repeat the process and because there should be no new packges (since we've checked for 2 hours) it should use the files from repo1.
therefore it's easier for run2 to copy the files from repo1 to the cache and use them instead of going back to the internet repos. this is what i want.
I can periodically add different packges to repo1 and keep it up to date (usb pen). i use repo1 as my rawhidea dn when yum see a newer version in it, it uses it. This means that yum hasn't forgotten my repo1. but about the other files in repo1 which are the same to one on the internet: It should know that local-copy is faster than download. So yum see the lastes version and chooses it regardless of the downlaod distance and for the rest of the packges goes to.............. the internet. why? My repo1 should have the highest priority.
Is there any way to do this?
