I found the answers, thanks.
I downloaded a modified version of the splitdistro script from:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/RedHat-CD-HOWTO/rhcd-scripts/splitdistro8.0
ref: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/RedHat-CD-HOWTO/include-updates.html
I copied the tar ball to the last cd folder after the split was done.

trying to build a custom 2 CD set. Ideally, the second CD will have the
300 meg tarball we have for custom software.
I'm have two issues:
1. I'm having problems getting the tarball on the second CD.
2. Getting "IndexError"
using anaconda-runtime-8.0-4
attempt #1 - I have the tarball on the root of the tree. The tarball
ends up on the first CD.

How do I control where the tarball ends up?
What's the IndexError referring to?
-thanks
