Sorry, I am trying to get this working with RHEL3.

I will look into adding repositories to the kickstart file for RHEL5,
that sounds really handy.

If this is RHEL5, why not just add a repository in your ks file that
has all the updates in it?  Far easier than trying to reconstruct the
install tree.
