    $ apt-cache show yam
    Package: yam
    Section: System Environment/Base
    Maintainer: Dag Wieers <dag@wieers.com>
    Filename: yam-0.3-1.1.fc2.dag.noarch.rpm
    Description: Tool to create a local RPM repository from ISO files and
    RPM packages
     Yam builds a local Apt/Yum RPM repository from local ISO files,
     downloaded updates and extra packages from 3rd party repositories.
      
     It can download all updates and extras automatically, creates
     the repository structure and meta-data, enables HTTP access to
     the repository and creates a directory-structure for PXE/TFTP.
      
     With yam, you can enable your laptop or a local server to provide
     updates for the whole network and provide the proper files to
     allow installations via the network.
      
     By default it works out of the box with:
      
            Fedora Core 1 and 2
            Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 and 3 (WS, ES, AS)
            TaoLinux 1
            CentOS 2.1 and 3
            Red Hat Linux 6.2, 7.3, 8.0 and 9

    so I think all you need to to is
    apt-get install yam
    man yum
