I have never made an ISO image; I do all of my installs via HTTP with all packages in a single directory. Yet if I do not build the hdlist file with a proper pkgorder file, things will not work properly. You seem intent on telling me things that run contrary to my actual experiences. I could be completely off base, but I have solved several installation problems simply by running pkgorder and giving the result to genhdlist instead of just running genhdlist. - J<
