Downloaded at Durgapur, copied at Agartala, and running successfully
at Hyderabad :) I have now tested the Fedora 10 offline repo, copied
from Aveek at Agartala.

Just some documentation changes required in the wiki page:
http://wiki.dgplug.org/index.php/Fedora_offline_repo_setup

1. "Location of offline repository : /dev/sdb1:/repo"

You should mention the directory structure in the external hard disk.
A 'manifest' for a project contains that. For, example, on my laptop I
have:

  /mnt/repo/
                   fedora/
                   rpmfusion/
                   utilities/
                   yum.repos.d.offline/Fedora-Local.repo

2. Try to keep all names in lower-case. *nix is case-sensitive.

3. baseurl=http://10.0.0.150/repository/fedora-local/rpmfusion/free/fedora/updates/
$releasever/i386/

The documentation mentions the correct path as
"baseurl=ftp://192.168.122.1/pub/rpmfusion/free/fedora/updates/$releasever/i386/"

The updated documentation was not reflected in the offline repo that I
had received. Please make sure you provide the updated
fedora-local.repo in future, if you share it with others.

Good work!

SK
