I want to be able to cache yum updates locally so when I build machines via
kickstart I can have them update more quickly from a local server. I can't
seem to recall how to do this using wget, and googling hasn't turned anything
up yet. Does anyone know of some page that describes how to do this? Thx.
My personal hack is set yum to cache (add 'keepcache=1' in /etc/yum.conf)
before updating the first machine I build on a new distro. Then when I
build the second or later machines I tarball up /var/cache/yum and drop it
into the new machine before starting the first update. It isn't pretty,
but as long you are working inside a single architecture it works like a
champ.
