ok, i just added the following /etc/SL6-media.repo file:
[sl6-media]
name=SL6-$releasever - Media
baseurl=file:///media/SL6
gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-sl6
the only hack was that since the SL6 Install DVD is mounted under
/media with embedded spaces and surrounding double quotes, i threw in
that simple symlink of /media/SL6. now if i want to install from the
DVD, i just use:
# yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=sl6-media install [whatever]
theoretically, it should work if (in this case) all dependencies can
be satisfied exclusively from the DVD.
