Hi guys, I need some help. I am working on an CentOS 4 (RHEL 4 clone) ISO which carries the latest updates as well as some extra RPM's for an ISO that will later be used to automatically install Linux and the applications required for the task of the system. My problem is this: Every time I generate an ISO and try to install it under VMWare the installer aborts after the message "Preparing RPM transaction…". I have uploaded the kickstart file used to http://proxy.11a.nu/LocalCopies/SIM_CD/ks.cfg, and a video on how it fails and what the consoles are showing can be downloaded from http://proxy.11a.nu/LocalCopies/SIM_CD/SIM_CD_Installation.avi. The movie requires the VMWare codec. For Win32 you download VMware Movie Decoder (http://www.vmware.com/download/moviedecoder.html), for Linux you need to download the mplayer's latest codec package (http://www4.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-20050412.tar.bz2) and drop the contents in /usr/local/lib/win32/. It is similar to bug 156032 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=156032), but I do generate a pkgorder and rerun genhdlist. I used the instructions found at http://fedoranews.org/contributors/gene_czarcinski/update_distro/ with minimal changes (locations etc.) Please advice. Best regards Michael Boman -- A: Maybe because some people are too annoyed by top-posting. Q: Why do I not get an answer to my question(s)? A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
