It looks like you're trying to read a directory full of ISO
CD-ROM
images instead of a directory of RPM packages. Either mount these
images via a loopback device, so you can see the actual contents of the
ISO's, or burn them to CD and copy the resulting RPM's back to disk.
So the README above is wrong? And William Hooper is wrong, even though he has
it working? I doubt it. :-)
