The first step of doing this is actually done in Fedora 9 where we set up the InstallMedia repo for DVD installs based on the file in the tree. Doing it more in general is difficult, though, as some of the install repos supported by anaconda aren't really supported by yum. eg, for NFS, you have to have it mounted because yum doesn't have any way of mounting an NFS repo (and probably shouldn't. although maybe it could) and NFSISO is definitely a bit of a non-starter. Even for FTP/HTTP there are complications, though. If you point at a repo, what happens to the other repos which are configured as "stock". If you're pointing at your local mirror, then it's kind of crummy to be downloading metadata both from your local mirror and the upstream copy. But, eg, if it's just a Fedora mirror, then you still want to have the Everything tree configured. > Q: Is there a substantial difference in handling http unified and split > trees ? HTTP split trees are (finally, at last, hooray!) dead Jeremy _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
