I do NFS kickstart installs for my laptop. Since I use NIS for
authentication, I downloaded the authconfig update from rawhide to fix
bug #61887. Everything worked with the new RPM so I decided to try
the RHupdates trick mentioned in the NFS section of
install-methods.txt (from the anaconda package). In there it says
- NFS (from a directory of ISOs)
--------------------------------
Summary:
Loopback mounts ISO images from NFS server.
Update Options:
- floppy
- 'updates.img' file in 'RedHat/base' directory
- updated python sources or modules in 'RHupdates/' directory are
used in preference to those in original.
so I made a directory RHupdates in the directory where I put the .iso
images and copied the authconfig update RPMs there. ls -1 yields
base

The re-install did not use the authconfig in the RHupdates directory
and I was wondering if I did something wrong of if this is a bug.
