Re: [PLUG] problem setting fedora13 iso as repository
createrepo: Directory /media/Fedora13 must be writeable. This states the problem clearly. DVD is a read only file system and createrepo requires to write database fil and metadata file to the location where you are creating the repo, hence the issue. -- Regards Rangeen Basu Roy Chowdhury Fedora Ambassador sherry...@gmail.com ___ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
Re: [PLUG] problem setting fedora13 iso as repository
Thanks for the reply. I performed the step as you have described. createrepo has generated necessary xml files. I also created iso.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d content of iso.repo [iso] baseurl=file:///path/to/mounted/iso enabled=1 still yum is not installing packages from this source. it is returning with some error saying bad id with iso.repo.
