Xen installation
Hello, I have CentOS 5.4 installed.
Now I'm trying to install Xen with out connecting to Internet (I have any driver for modem, so I search on Inernet only from Windows). All I have are 7 installation disks. First I done was to find kind of some add/remove programs wizard but it needed connection to Inernet. Second I try was to find Xen rpm on all disks and install it. But I fell on some dependency of some dependency. Third I attempted was to boot from first disk and do upgrade, but also it was unsuccessfully... So my question is: is there some way to install Xen from CentOS installation disks with out network? Thank you for ahead. |

adapt for centos discs, use the first disc first. |
Might have to use this tarball to make your own install.

It looks like you haven't specified the path correctly.
It is looking for the wrong things in the wrong places. Post the entire yum output please. Also, post your repo here, and a listing of the first centos cd. |

Your repo is not set up right.
baseurl=file:///media/CentOS/ should be baseurl=file:///media/CentOS_5.4_Final/CentOS/ also get rid of file:///media/cdrom/ file:///media/cdrecorder/ |

I tried what you suggest, but it is not exactly worked. For get this working I coppied all rpm's from all 7 discs to /repository/CentOS that I was created before that, I summed all contents of TRANS.TBL files from all discs in CentOS directory to one file and saved it in /repository/CentOS/TRANS.TBL, after this I put the importest directory named repodata from first disc (/media/CentOS_5.4_Final/repodata) to /repository/repodata After that I coppied CentOS-Media.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d to, for instance: CentOS-Local.repo and set baseurl to: baseurl=file:///repository/ Only to /repository/ not to /repository/CentOS/ or /repository/repodata The last thing was to disable all other repositories like it was described here before. This is the only way to get it working I thing, because when yum not find some dependency on current cd disc, it throw error instead of require following disc like in "Other OS's". Thank you for your help. |
