Lets we building server using Fedora Core 6. In here, your system is already installed Fedora Core 6. I will explain about all installation and configuration that need.
Build repository directory.

Now, your /home/RPMS directory is repository installation directory.
2. Run createrepo from console,
# createrepo /home/RPMS

To make /home/RPMS directory to be installation directory,
# mv /etc/yum.repos.d /etc/temp-yum.repos.d
3. After all installation complete. Now, you can edit /etc/yum.conf. Add this configuration to the last line.
