Well, I went thru the comps.xml file and pulled out all the mandatory packages in Base and Core. That gives me the following list: basesystem bash coreutils cpio e2fsprogs ed efibootmgr elilo file filesystem glibc grub hdparm hotplug initscripts iproute iputils kbd kernel libgcc libtermcap losetup passwd procps raidtools readline redhat-logos redhat-release rootfiles rpm setserial setup sysklogd SysVinit termcap util-linux vim-minimal authconfig kudzu shadow-utils acl at attr authconfig bc bind-utils bzip2 crontabs cyrus-sasl-plain dhclient diffutils dos2unix ethtool eject kudzu lha logrotate lsof lokkit mailcap man mkbootdisk mt-st netconfig ntsysv parted pciutils pinfo quota redhat-logos rsync slocate star talk tcsh telnet traceroute time tmpwatch utempter unix2dos unzip vconfig vim-common vixie-cron zip Now, how do I find out the order to install them in?
