Ian, Are you using 'splittree.py' & 'genhdlist' as part of your CD build process? As I understand it splittree is required in order to split the pacakges into the necessary number of 'CDs', and genhdlist is needed to be run after the split again in order to re-generate the list of packages for each CD. Both scripts should have come with the anaconda-runtime package. I use the following process to build my images. I'm making CD, not DVD images though, and much of what I do is dynamic so steps 6-12 are probably what might help most: 1.) create the kickstart file 2.) create the comps.xml file 3.) create the .discinfo file 4.) create the isolinux.cfg file 5.) create the isolinux menu file 6.) generate the hdlists (genhdlist) 7.) check dependencies (getfullcomps.py) 8.) generate the package order file (pkgorder) 9.) build the install tree (buildinstall) 10.) split the install image (splittree.py) 11.) regen the hdlists (genhdlist) 12.) build the iso images (mkisofs) 13.) implant md5sums in the images (implantisomd5) 14.) verify the md5sums (checkisomd5) Hope the above helps.
