I'm sorry, brain locked on the name. It 'was' check-repository.py that I ran after commenting out the todo line. It reported problems with the same package that genhdlist aborted on, which was shown at the bottom of the stack trace as it blew up. My confusion is from the fact that I changed 'nothing' and copied the whole cd to spinning disk, and genhdlist failed, but when I ran it against the cd itself (via its mountpoint) it worked fine. -- ---------- vince.skahan@xxxxxxxxxx -------------- Connexion by Boeing - Cabin Network -----Original Message----- From: Tony Nugent [mailto:tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 3:58 PM To: kickstart-list Subject: Re: minimally changing rh72 disk-1 On Fri Jun 21 2002 at 09:01, "Skahan, Vince" wrote: > > genhdlist aborts with a traceback that points to one > package.

Yep, you'll have to keep fiddling with the contents of RedHat/RPMS/ and what you have in the comps file until you have all the dependencies satisfied. BTW, what is this "dependency-check.py" that you mention?
