If so, how ? I have a local repo setup for stuff I pull from koji before it hits updates-testing, some locally built packages, and some packages targeted for RHEL that I use at work. After downloading new rpms from koji, I add them to the repo directory and then run createrepo on the directory. In /etc/yum.repos.d I add an entry for the local repo: [local] name=Local packages failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/$basearc h/os/ #mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=rawhide&arch=$basear ch baseurl=file:///home/fedora/local/$releasever enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 Note that "local" isn't really the best name, as there is a yum extension that also works with a local repo. You can also just install the kernel rpms with rpm, but make sure to use install not update for the kernel and kernel-devel packages, or you'll only be left with one kernel, which may not be nice if it doesn't work. While this currently works, the kernel and graphic drivers are inter-related and this may limit what you can do at some point later in the F14 life cycle. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
