Gautam: There is a way described in the document that helps you find out which packages dependencies are not met. Just follow: cd /RH80/ONE_CD/RedHat/RPMS mkdir /tmp/testdb rpm --initdb --dbpath /tmp/testdb rpm --test --dbpath /tmp/testdb -Uvh *.rpm And then add the packages that are missing. The other alternative is to use kickstart-tools. http://kickstart-tools.sourceforge.net/ or http://sourceforge.net/projects/kickstart-tools/ This is a set of tools which helped me a lot with building my comps.xml file and it also checks for dependencies. Hope this helps.

Hello friends, i am in need of some help and some suggestions. I have gone through the automating CD Issue 108: Hacking Red Hat Kickstart Posted on Tuesday, April 01, 2003 by Brett SchwarzI I followed it and really could do my stuff. Now i want to know about one step which really troubles me a lot. The step to find out dependencies in the rpm's i have selected. Do we have a tool or can someone give me guidelines how i should go about automating the task for resolving the dependencies. My setup: I am using the Redhat 9.0 distro, created my ONE_CD...followed all the steps and all works fine. Thanxs in advance Regards, Gautam Pagedar CINS _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
