@Deepesh,

CentOS 8 went end of life at the end of December and all the content of the CentOS 8 repos has been moved to vault.centos.org.

It’s time to switch to something else.

@Ronee,

You need to download the iso file from CentOS’s official website…

Hi There, I need help here. I’m trying to set up a Local Yum/DNF Repository on Rhel 8 and this is the first step that has to be performed – mount CentOS-8-x86_64-1905-dvd1.iso to /opt. However, I am unable to find the iso details mentioned here, For Example – “CentOS-8-x86_64-1905-dvd1.iso”.

Can someone please help me to find from where can I get these details?

After I have successfully created my repository and installed some software I will reboot and then either my system will boot the disk that is connected or I disconnect the disk it won’t boot and put me in some safe mode. What am I doing wrong?
