There is a 'Software Sources Manager' in the start menu.  

Copy all the rpms to some nice directory, and tell the manager
about it.  I also had to delete the headings for the cd so
it wouldn't ask me for a cd.  I've only done one program
install since then, but it seems to work.

To mount the cd images to copy the files

mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop /filenameOfIso /path 
to mount the iso image, or just copy them from the cd's.

p.s. For some reason when I tried to do a reply to this email
it tried to go to you rather than the group for some reason.

Subject: [Cooker] permanently mounting mdk 9.0 cd iso images


I am interested in permanently mounting mdk 9.0 cd iso images so I could 
add/remove/update rpms in the iso images, and add them to urpmi sources 
without copying them into the filesystem.

Would I do this in the fstab?
and what would the entry look like to enable the above to be presistent 
through reboots?
