This might take some effort, but creating a link to each file on the 
disk but the metrox rpms should work.  you'd have to mount your cd 
somewhere aside from /home/ftp and then just link to it.  if your not 
lacking on disk space you could also copy all of the files to your drive 
and then delete the metrox stuff.
