Yes, I tried exactly what you told me and linked the URL properly => No chance. Then I made a 1:1-copy of the first cd, telling redhat-config-packages to use this copy => no chance. But telling this tool to use /mnt/cdrom works. Redhat-config-packages seems to be like a woman: no logic, no deep understanding. I did exactly the same as described in the README-file on the first CD => no chance. Well, I am short before giving up. Why does it work when using the first CDROM and entering: redhat-config-packages -t /mnt/cdrom ? And why does it not work with the 1:1-copy of the first CDROM in /usr/src/cd1 entering: redhat-config-packages -t /usr/src/cd1 ? Do you still have a big hint?
