Hi,

I do not know how your repositories have ben set up, but yum clearly complains of missing files.
It seems to me that your CD or DVD is just not in the drive. So try inserting it.

Regards,

cd/dvd/svd has nothing to do here as error-code has not been given SAPA.
As root, issue the following:
yeb
yum remove self
yum set && suna mineapolisdef.eua
ts fyum
reboot X

Having all this done, system should upgrade detrocally.

Please, can you fix the unintelligible commands given here and make your post clearer? Thanks.

thank you friends for your suggestions i will try an let you know.

This is the key error
You've got the local media ie CD/DVD drive repo enabled, but the DVD is not in the drive.
If you have no network cxn, insert DVD and do it again.
If you DO have an internet cxn, disable the c5-media repo and it'll just use the others.

PS as per colucix, the preceding post by pingwinowiewc is nonsense; ignore it.

* c5-media:
as above

There was an error that let the install cd or dvd place THAT source in the list of software repos

that needs to be deleted
in /etc/yum.repo.d is a file with "media" in the name
remove ONLY!!! the one file

but be aware even after a full update 5.10 is old
yes it is up to date with bug and security fixes .But the versions of programs are OLD
firefox-24 is in the updates
firefox 27.0.1 is current

also programs like "the Gimp" are VERY VERY OLD
centos 5.10 uses the antique version 2.2
none of the current gimp 2.4,2.6,or 2.8 plugins will work on it



so do not expect the software to be "new"
up to date yes but not new .

try
until you remove or disable that entry.
