you can run the buildinstall script, it will point out
some packages requiered for the installation.
from the upd-instroot script (RH9):
[...]
PACKAGES="glibc glibc-common setup openssl python python2 newt slang
libtermcap zlib ash e2fsprogs util-linux raidtools popt
procps rpm XFree86 Xconfigurator anaconda

busybox-anaconda rpm-python booty hdparm lvm
rhpl pyxf86config libxml2 libxml2-python glib2
elfutils-libelf bogl-bterm bogl krb5-libs convertdb1"
[...]

Well, as you can see, some packages here refer to older RH distros
(Xconfigurator for example) so all of them are not needed, you can
also remove some fonts if you don't need them, etc... but this might
help you finding the missing parts ;-)
