[CentOS] Newbie - yum update and repos problems

[Bruce Whealton]

Oh, ok. But I didn't specify to use c6-media?  I was just using the command
yum update or yum install php*
How do I tell it not to use c6-media?
Thanks,
Bruce

did you specify to enable the c6-media repository on your yum command 
line?    c6-media is a reference to the centos6 DVD, and its looking to 
see if its mounted in /media/CentOS or /media/cdrom or /media/cdrecorder

I've /never/ messed with c6-media, as I don't use disks hardly ever, and I'd
rather get the latest rpms from the update respositories.
