Is this a different problem from not having repositories set up
properly?  Would this problem go away if I am to use rpm?  Assuming
that rpm gets executed successfully, would I still have the problem
of not having properly set up repository?

No trivial reference material but you might take a look at cobbler:
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/ - it might be able to make this
process simpler for you.
