No experience with the bulk of your issues, but genhdlist will take an argument as such: --productpath Fedora That eliminates the need for a work around. -brad [ Charset ISO-8859-1 unsupported, converting... ] > I have been using kickstart for some time to build selinux installs on a > RHL7.1 base, and am trying to leapfrog forward to FC2 test 2, since > selinux is being integrated onto that distribution.
