Okey, here is something interesting.
So I finished downloading all CentOS 4.4 images (CDs and DVD) before anything else. Now I have the dvd iso mounted (-o loop), and changed CentOS-Base.repo so the [base] repo will point to it.
# yum update
Boom! Yum tries to use the [update] repository (not local) to upgrade to 4.4.
What I ended up doing is:
# yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=base update
Which, of course, works fine and uses my local (file://) repository.
Is this the only way to do it, or did I miss something ?
There is a "New Thing"(tm) in this update set :) (don't you just love new things :)
If you install the new centos-release rpm, you should have a /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo file
If you then stick in a CentOS DVD (the CD's won't work as there is no mechanism to change them out), it will normally automount into either:
/media/cdrom
or
/media/cdrecorder
If it automounted, you can do this:
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=c4-media update
(if it did not automount, then do this first (based on which one you are using):
mount /media/cdrom
or
mount /media/cdrecorder
