YUM repository setup on ISO based - RHEL -5

Initially I created mkdir /var/repo/
mount -o loop /var/rhel5.iso /var/repo
cd /var/repo
createrepo .
and then ran createrepo on it. But would get the following error:
Directory must be writable.
To resolve that create a soft link
mkdir /var/repo/Server --> This is the path where I will dump my all RPM's from Server directory
ln -s /var/repo/Server/ /var/repo/Server
createrepo /var/repo/Server

Now......... Add following to the file

 cat /etc/yum.repos.d/iso.repo

[My ISO Repository]
name=test
baseurl=file:///var/repo/Server
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Now... Lets test:

[root@smtreeprd02 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i telnet
telnet-0.17-38.el5
[root@smtreeprd02 ~]# yum remove telnet-0.17-38.el5
