Add packages without installation CD

[François Patte]

Selon Jeremy Conlin <jeremyconlin at mail.weber.edu>:

> I would like to install some additional packages (~20) on a remote
> computer.  Since the computer is remote, I can't put the CD into the
> drive and let the "Add Packages" utility access the CD.  I have
> downloaded the FC2 images and have tried mounting them on the desktop,
> but that didn't work either.
> 	I know there is a way to install each of these individually, but since
> there are ~20 of them, I would like the installer to just take care of
> it for me.  For example, I want to add the Web Server packages to my
> installation.  How can I do this?

log in through ssh then become root and use yum
