if you have enough disk space, copy all the rpms from the cds onto your hard drive. try "mkdir /usr/repo", insert the first cd in the drive, navigate to the directory with the .rpm files, and copy them all to the /usr/repo directory. repeat for all the cds.

after that, whenever you want to install a package, cd to /usr/repo, and type "rpm -ivh <whatever>.rpm".

this isn't really the right way to do it. the right way is probably somewhere in this thread.

I understand, but in case of installation of GNU C Compiler , I am facing dependencies problem. it mean "C compiler package needs other packages because of GNU compiler depends on 73 rmps" and I do not know about Needed rpms name
