Ok. I must be missing something. I have rebuilt the hdlist files several
times and I keep getting an error when the installer goes to read the
package information. From all the error messages, it looks like it is
having a problem with the openssl package. The last line of the error
reads: "KeyError: openssl". I have checked and all the proper openssl
packages seem to be there. Does anyone have any clues or pointers?

From your description, I think you need to run 'genhdlist' (from the
anaconda-runtime package) to update $mp/RedHat/base/hdlist
and $mp/RedHat/base/hdlist2 after you replace one or more rpm files
in the $mp/RedHat/RPMS directory.
Usage is:
/usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/genhdlist $mp
(In all cases $mp == path to where you've installed the RedHat
directory.)
You probably also want to check permissions on the hdlist files
afterwards to make sure the installer can still read them.
