Firstly my apologies for questions that may seem simple for some people
on the list.
After years of working with Redhat (6.3 and onwards) I thought It would
be fun for a challenge and try building a custom distro, you know the
ones, updated rpm's etc. Anyway, after getting completely frustrated
trying with FC4, I gave up until FC5 came out.
So I've been trying and trying ever since day one of FC5, but still no
luck. I'm not receiving any errors during the build process, and the
build cd's boot okay, but as soon as it gets to the install part it
spits the cd out and asks for the correct cd (No Fedora Core CD was
found which matches your boot media. Please insert......). I checked out
the .discinfo file and it looks exactly like (except for the datestamp)
the one on the original cd.
Could someone please let me know what could be going on.
I have one script that runs the build process.......

I would have loved to work this out myself but I've been trying lots of
things and nothing has been working, and there seems limited information
through the archive.
Thankyou for any help.
