Hi Matt, Thanks for the heads up. I've also taken a look at the rPath development environment that you are apart of. Sounds very very interesting, certainly makes things 10 times easier as well. If this all goes well I'll release an ISO on the rPath site for those that may be interested in giving it a whirl. Main reason I am doing this project is primarily for a stable base for building/deploying servers so there will be no X server, GNOME or KDE. Should help keep the entire OS quite small considering that fact. Anyway, thanks again for the info.

It doesn't use the AnacondaBackend class introduced recently that should make supporting different installation methods easier than in the past. Anyway, since you're planning on installing from RPMs, no anaconda code changes should be required. -- Matt Wilson Founding Engineer rPath, Inc. msw@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
