Cool! But it doesn't actually work in RHEL4 :-( updates.img gets downloaded and loopback mounted to /tmp/updates, but packages there don't get applied. I made the updates.img for RHEL4 U2 beta, and put the kernel*-17*rpm packages in it. After the install was down I can rpm -Fvh kernel*rpm against the very same set of packages and I get my kernel upgraded, so I don't think this is a dependancy issue with anaconda... it just doesn't work.
