Oracle Linux 6 Update 6 contains three distinct repository sources on the installation media for the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel Release 2, the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel Release 3, and the Red Hat Compatible Kernel.
To configure yum to use both an Unbreakable
Enterprise Kernel Release 2 and the Red Hat Compatible Kernel
repositories from an ISO image of the installation media,
create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/Media.repo
containing entries similar to the following:
[ol6_base_media] name=Oracle Linux 6 Update 6 Base Media baseurl=file:///media/ISOimage/Server gpgkey=file:///media/ISOimage/RPM-GPG-KEY gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 [ol6_uek_media] name=Oracle Linux 6 Update 6 UEK Media baseurl=file:///media/ISOimage/UEK2 gpgkey=file:///media/ISOimage/RPM-GPG-KEY gpgcheck=1 enabled=1
To configure yum to use both an Unbreakable
Enterprise Kernel Release 3 and the Red Hat Compatible Kernel
repositories from an ISO image of the installation media,
create the file /etc/yum.repos.d/Media.repo
containing entries similar to the following:
[ol6_base_media] name=Oracle Linux 6 Update 6 Base Media baseurl=file:///media/ISOimage/Server gpgkey=file:///media/ISOimage/RPM-GPG-KEY gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 [ol6_uekr3_media] name=Oracle Linux 6 Update 6 UEK Media baseurl=file:///media/ISOimage/UEKR3 gpgkey=file:///media/ISOimage/RPM-GPG-KEY gpgcheck=1 enabled=1
The ol6_uekr3_media repository is not
available for i386 systems.
Adjust the value of the baseurl and
gpgkey parameters to match the mount point
of the ISO image on your system. If you do not require one of
the repositories, set the value of the corresponding
enabled parameter to 0.
