Thanks Clyde
   Your advice worked a treat but now I'm trying 'add/remove packages' 
with an error "Installation tree not found. The path /media/cdrecorder 
does not look like a valid installation source"
I don't think Yum would work either having no installation tree.
  Are there any workarounds for this.


    Thanks  david
