Hi Michel--
To creat a Yum repository--
Creat a directory on your local drive (I chose tmp)
I named mine yum (easy)--so I made /tmp/yum/updates
Load all your files that you need to update into /updates
next--as root--cd to your /updates & run yum-arch -v /tmp/yum/updates
this will create a headers file in the directory
next--modify your yum.conf to reflect the "new" file source
nano /etc/yum.conf & add this set of lines--
[UPDATES]
name=Yellow Dog Linux 4.0 UPDATES
baseurl=file:///tmp/yum/updates
when you run yum the next time--yum will "find" all your new updates--
