Yum update/install script
Any one know of a way to do a yum -install and draw the argument of what to install from a text file?
I have a huge list of rpms that I have to install on a bunch of machines and I would like to run one script that goes to each machine and installs all rpms in the list I have.

Hi,
I would like to know the difference between YUM UPDATE and YUM UPGRADE. The man pages say upgrade is same as update with the obsolete option. And by default it says the obsolete option is turned on, which would make them equivalent. Does not say what obsolete does.

fragiso
FRAGISO(8) System Manager's Manual FRAGISO(8)
NAME
fragiso - split rpm packages from an iso and reassemble the iso later on
SYNOPSIS
fragiso make iso fiso
fragiso list fiso
fragiso fill [-m] fiso iso
DESCRIPTION
fragiso can be used to convert an iso file into a fragment file, which is a list describing all of the rpms on the iso and a data chunk
containing everything but the rpms. It is used by drpmsync when an iso needs to be transferred. The idea is that often the rpms on the iso
are already available on the destination host, so it saves bandwidth to first transfer the fragmented iso, copy the locally available rpms,
transfer the unavailable rpms and reassemble the iso file.
fragiso make converts the iso into the fragment iso, fragiso list can be used to extract the rpm information. This information consists of
the offset and length of all rpms and the lead/signature header md5sum plus the header/payload md5sum. To reassemble the iso one has to
copy the rpms at the right offset into a new file and then use fragiso fill later on to provide all data not contained in the rpms. The -m
option tells fragiso to print the resulting md5sum of the iso to stdout. It can be used for verification purposes.
