First of all, I'm wondering if this is the right place to ask questions
about redhat-config-packages... I think I'll try:
I'm testing a custom installation DVD containing Red Hat Linux 9 and
some additions, and all the required files for anaconda boot and
execution. OS installation using the DVD works just fine, but if I start
redhat-config-packages with no arguments when the DVD is mounted, or
double-click on one of the rpms, I get a message saying that /mnt/cdrom
is not a valid installation source. However (and this is the really
weird part), if I issue
redhat-config-packages --tree=/mnt/cdrom
on the command line, the installer GUI starts as expected and package
installation works just fine.
Can anyone explain this?
