Is there any other method for checking anaconda without performing 'buildinstall'. I saw a package named anaconda-debug-info, but don't have any idea to use it.
you can make changes to certain files in anaconda source, put them on a diskette, and when you go to install the os, type 'linux updates' at the boot: prompt and your changes will be sucked up and used by anaconda!! No need to rebuild anaconda each time just to test your changes!

How can I pass a string to the tag product in buildindtall? When I used double quotes it shows an error. The command I tried was /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/buildinstall --comp dist-9 --pkgorder /home/fedora/pkgorder.txt --product "Kairali Linux" --release 1 --version 1 /home/fedora/i386
Is there anyother way out?

looking into this soon - but here is some stuff to try ...
the line in question is line 125 of /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/buildinstall (for anaconda-runtime-9.2)

$BUILDINSTALL --buildinstdir $BUILDINSTDIR --second $PKGORDERSTR --comp $COMPNAME --version $VERSION --release $RELEASESTR --product $PRODUCTSTR --prodpath $PRODUCTPATH $DIR

try changing:
--product $PRODUCTSTR
to ...
--product '$PRODUCTSTR'
or
--product "$PRODUCTSTR"
or
--product \"$PRODUCTSTR\"
or
--product \'$PRODUCTSTR\'
or
some combination of these - i dont have time right now but this is what i plan to do
if you get it to accept a string - please post what you did ...

thanks
