Pick your favorite mirror, and rsync its updates directly, to a flash

mount point of the flash drive.

Each time after you rsync the updates directory, mount the flash drive,
and just run 'yum update'.

If another machine on your wireless lan has internet connectivity, you
can just rsync updates somewhere in /var/www/html on that machine, then
point your config to this url, as the update source.



I was actually thinking along those lines, but wanted to see if there were other (or better) options that I wasn't aware of. Thanks for that.
