Question FC6 installing software from DVD

I have create my DVD repo like below :
Quote:
[DVD]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=file:///media/FC_6%20i386%20DVD
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///media/FC_6%20i386%20DVD/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora file:///media/FC_6%20i386%20DVD/RPM-GPG-KEY
But when I enable the repo and I try installing with yum I receive these errors :
Quote:
[root@arwen ~]# yum install mysql*
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
Resolving Dependencies
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Downloading header for mysql to pack into transaction set.
media://1161131669.029329%232/Fedora/RPMS/mysql-5.0.22-2.1.i386.rpm: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error unknown url type: media>
Trying other mirror.
Error: failed to retrieve Fedora/RPMS/mysql-5.0.22-2.1.i386.rpm from DVD
error was [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error unknown url type: media>
Same idea to solve ??

I am not sure about this. I haven't tried it myself Try 3 slashes (media:///) I am guessing it's the same as loading a local file in a browser url it becomes file:/// intead of http://

In case you haven't look at these (you probably have since you got this far)

I want to do something like I have already do with
FC5 .
This is the link of my old post on this forum :http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/...d.php?t=100220

I think that the problem is the label of the FC6 DVD that contain space caracter.

I try to sobstitute with "%20" but don't work .

Today I'll try to mount manually the dvd in a dir with a name without space.

Exusme for my bad English

If someone find the solution I'm here .

Thanks to all.
