CentOS Local Repo questions (Group Install)

Swakoo · 09-09-2009, 11:14 PM

Hi guys,

just 2 questions

1) for rhel, i always just copy the entire DVD into a folder, run createrepo -g <group.xml> <location of repo> and it will work.

For centos, i have to put it into a specific location, being:
centos/version/os/i386 (or x86_64)

Is that normal? Always thought RHEL and CentOS are similiar..

2) Ok here's the main question
Having figured (1), I just ran createrepo on the location and it works.
yum groupinstall clustering works

But surprisingly, yum groupinstall cluster storage doesn't.

Anyone can offer a tip?

Thanks!

ok solved (1)..

turns out I need to run "-g repodata/comps.xml" instead!
