  perhaps i missed this when i was installing but is there a quick way
to install a media repo file -- that is, one that tries to install off
of the inserted DVD?

  when i was using centos 5.5, there was a CentOS-Media.repo file that
contained:

[c5-media]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Media
baseurl=file:///media/CentOS/
        file:///media/cdrom/
        file:///media/cdrecorder/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-beta

  so one could enable that repo file and pull packages directly off of
the DVD for speed.  is there a shortcut to install that on SL 6, or
should i just create the SL equivalent manually?  thanks.
