Michael,

Bingo! I moved my copy of the DVD iso from ./images/ to its os/ parent
and Retry accepted it. It's a kluge for sure, but it's working.

I was hoping to use the full mirror to install Everything and Updates in
one session. It seems to me that would be the fastest and most efficient
way to do a new install, especially if there are several to do.

Thanks to all for your help.
