You need to modify code inside this img (Python), to make a thing like: cd1/cool_distro/RPMS/... instead of cd1/RedHat/RPMS/...:) Also, take a look at bootdisk.img where the >> loader << program is that before starting says something like "Greetings... RedHat init ...". Loader source is in C code. Also, pay attention at .discinfo and ..buildstamp files, and do not leave any RedHat logos (or you're busted:) This helps? Vladimir. -- "This is it...
