Thanks Dennis.

I did following experiment:

Mounted ISO onto a local directory, changed to the directory, did nothing,
run "createrepo --update .", but I found the files under repodata changed,
including the checksum in filename. Is that expected? I suppose they
shouldn't be changed.

I am readying the manual of pungi.

One more question: do you have any good links about customizing a ISO? I
found a few pages, but they seem not to work.
You can't really customise a Fedora installer iso. You basically have
two options:
1) Regenerate the iso from clean
2) Use the existing installer iso but point it to a new
updated/changed repository.
Depending what you're doing, the latter (2) might really be what you
want. Especially if you use a Kickstart file, there is rarely a need to
actually respin the entire media.

I had to do this years ago with Centos 4 to build an iso that would even start on a old piece of hardware. It was really painful and Karanbir was a big help at the time. Doubt if I can find my notes. These days, as long as I can boot into a netinstal and maybe grab a kickstart file, do see needing a custom iso. Those are for times when you can't even get through the boot process.
