Nope, no yum repositories as far as I know.  It's a pain.

If you have mounted ISO images someplace, boot the first CD and then 
put in 'linux askmethod' at the syslinux prompt.  This will make the 
installer ask you what installation method you want to use instead of 
just assuming you are doing a CD install since you booted from a CD.

On a side note how do you use the application installer to install additional package groups like development from a mounted iso image.  It keeps wanting me to insert CD-ROM but not letting me choose the mounted iso images.    Thanks for any feedback.
