I installed linux using a DVD drive and DVD image. Once the install was complete, I removed the DVD drive and put a copy of the image on the machine:
mount -o loop -t iso9660 rh8-dvd.iso /mnt/rh8
Now when I run redhat-config-packages, I can not access that image. I select additional components in the packages window. Select install and it prepares for the install. After it identifies what it needs, I select ok and it asks for disk 1. I select ok and it never finishes the install. The window wanting disk 1 keeps poping up.
I tried redhat-config-packages -t=/mnt/rh8
This does not work either.
I tried using redhat-cdinstall-helper, but can't seem to figure out how that is supposed to work. Looks like instructions for the redhat-config-packages only.
I need to know how to configure the system so that when executing redhat-config-packages, it now looks at my mounted iso to get the packages.
