Im trying to create a FC3 kickstart DVD in FC6, yet, when I attempt to

the console i get a few errors...

I am attempting to boot this on a virtual machine. The only thing I can
think is, since im using FC6, I have to use 'createrepo' instead of
'genhdlist'... Will that create this error? This is exactly how i
create the cd image.
The fact that you are building the CD on FC6 is irrelevant, to do an

I don't think so, the CD/DVD image has to be built with the correct
version of Anaconda, and that may require the FC3 level Python etc etc/
install the FC3 version of anaconda is still going to require the

and run genhdlist.
sudo cp nepenthes-ks.cfg FC3/isolinux/
cd FC3
sudo createrepo -g Fedora/base/comps.xml `pwd`
cd ..
sudo mkisofs -o nepenthes-ossim.iso -V 'FC/3 i386' -b

Can anyone see anything that I could be doing wrong?
Well, you don't indicate what else you are putting on the CD, but you
could get this error if you left out the .discinfo file.
