I then updated that system and installed the pungi package along with a few others. The idea was to download a basic Fedora 14 system so I could produce a full Fedora14 DVD with all updates and my extra packages. This all appeared to work fine, but the DVD produced bu pungi had the errors I reported. I now have it working fine. The problem was that the "stip" utility, which is in the binutils package was not installed on the system. Ok, most people would probbaly have this but the anaconda package used by pungi did not have this as a package dependency and no error status was returned when it was not found. So there are two small bugs: 1. The anacoda package should have "binutils" as a dependancy as buildinstall requires strip. 2. The buildinstall utility should have better error checking and return an error status when strip fails. I will try and add the bug to the anaconda package.
