However, I'm still stumped here. I managed to generate my hdlist files, which seem alright. However, the installation still dies. VC1 immediately drops to "install exited abnormally" after comps.rpm is retrieved from the HTTP server. VC3 is a little less than helpful by saying "WARNING: not all packages in hdlist had order tag". I'm not quite sure what this means, however, I'm researching it. How am I supposed to rebuild comps.rpm? I'm going to rip it apart and take a look, but I'll also wait for your response in the meantime, if you've got any ideas. Thanks again! -dant
