    create a file called /etc/yum.repos.d/dvd.repo and put in it something like:
    Code:
    # Repo RPMS on DVD
[dvd]
name=DVD Repo for $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=file:///media/DVD/$releasever/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
    then verify that you can see it with:
    Code:
    yum repolist
