ok, here's one more question that will fill in a large part of the
picture for me.

if i wanted to, i could rewrite the anaconda RPM to make major changes
in the install process, such as adding a whole new screen, adding
another install class, etc.  clearly, this would involve changing
some of the python code in that RPM.

when i run "buildinstall", which eventually runs "mk-images", does
this build the installer images based on the contents of the
anaconda RPM that it finds in the RPMS/ directory?  

in other words, could i make mods to the anaconda RPM, rebundle it
back into RPM form, and have buildinstall create the images based
on my changes?
