Debian based distributions are able to use the package manager to search for and install from the CD's, and I'm looking for the CentOS equivalent. Obviously, it's possible to install "manually" from a CD with: mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom cd /media/cdrom/CentOS rpm -U foobar-1.2.3.-4.5.el5.i386.rpm Yum has such good dependency checking I'd like to know of a way to use it if possible. ========Keith Sorry to bother the list, I found the answer here: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/CreatingUpdateMedia
