Hi David,
createrepo -p -v ./rhel4/ wouldn't work as createrepo will ignore
./rhel4/RPMS, which is a symlinked dir. Seems that createrepo can
process file symlinks just fine, but it ignores directory symlinks.
It actually works for me {using an iso rather than dvd}:
mkdir /mnt/f8
mount -o loop /home/infrastructure/iso/Fedora-8-i386-DVD.iso /mnt/f8
mkdir /etc/yum.repos.d/f8
ln -s /mnt/f8/Packages/ /etc/yum.repos.d/f8/RPMS
createrepo /etc/yum.repos.d/f8/
2200rpms found and inserted into /etc/yum.repos.d/f8/repodata/*
gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/f8.repo
[f8] set the baseurl to: file:///etc/yum.repos.d/f8/
yum clean metadata dbcache {might need if you moved stuff around}
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=f8 list
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=f8 install ypbind
