if you install in expert mode, you can label partitions whatever you
want.  I used to make a /rpms directory and mount it on it's own
partition.  This is handy for upgrades when some security fixes have
already released.

If you have a descent connection, try just loading an ftp site into your
urpmi database and dumping your cd's.
