Okay, after being on this list for years, you would think I would
remember updates.img.  Is it possible to specify an alternate HTTP
location for updates.img besides RedHat/base?  

We extract the Red Hat ISO's for a given update (i.e. RHEL 4 U2) and we
like to leave those alone (not touch them).  We'd like to be able to
specify an alternate location for updates.img if possible.
