If your distro is only one CD, the sequence is: 1)run genhdlist 2)run pkgorder 3)run genhdlist again, with the --fileorder parameter 4)run buildinstall to rebuild the boot images 5)have fun!!! But, if you need to split your distro... 1)run genhdlist 2)run pkgorder 3)run buildinstall to rebuild the boot images 4)run splittree with --pkgorderfile parameter 5)run genhdlist again, with the --fileorder parameter - now, hdlist and hdlist2 have the information specifying which CD holds which package. 6)enjoy your distro!!!
