It's some nebulous language.
I think the problem, though, is not ill-will on Red Hat's part, but lack of

looked at the FC5 stuff yet, for all previous releases, everything you need
*is* there, just not documented very well.
The commands are there, but I don't imagine anyone@redhat actually types
them all in each time they build. I wouldn't: if it's ten commands, I'd
have them all in a shell script. I have lots of very short scripts.
Copying that script to the first ISO image would fix the documentation
problem.
