Did you just copy the DVD, or did you put the .ISO image out on the NFS share? Have you contacted RedHat support? They can walk you through this in no time, since you've paid for support with RHEL5.

Could you pls give me the steps on how you copied the cd's and created the repository? I did the same thing and put the whole folder on the NFS share. I am also facing the same problem. How did you exactly resolve the issue?
