RHEL U2 buildinstall on ia32e arch

I wanted to drop everyone a note, and let people know that when building
a custom distro based on RHEL3 AMD64, you will now need the ia32e
kernel.  This is new to the anaconda of update 2. The x86_64 kernel is
no longer used for building the boot.iso and pxe images.  This is from a
change in mk-images:

if [ "$BUILDARCH" = "ppc" -o "$BUILDARCH" = "ppc64" ]; then
    arches="ppc64pseries ppc64iseries"
else if [ "$BUILDARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
    arches="ia32e"
else
    arches="$BUILDARCH"
fi


So the moral is "don't forget to include the ia32e kernel as Joshua did"
:-)
