On second thoughts, I think you are trying to install something from the Fedora DVD without an Internet connection. In that case have a look at how the .repo files are written in /etc/yum.repos.d/ You will need to write one for your DVD, where you will use file:// instead of http:// in the baseurl field and simply remove the mirrorlist and gpgcheck fields. Point the baseurl to the directory in the DVD containing the RPMs. Disable the rest of the repos and give it a go.
