I tried to run it, but looks like you need the SRPMS.  The script
doesn't do much error checking.  The variables are not well commented,
but I assume BUILDDIR is where the build will happen and DISTDIR is
the original source is located.

Anyway, I guess I'll have to dive into the script and try to figure
out how it's doing it.  BTW, last question.  Does it create the
initrd, kernel, netstg and stage2 images automatically?

Here's my sample run:

ls: /scratch/fong/centos-4.1-rebuild/SRPMS/comps-4*: No such file or directory
ls: /scratch/fong/centos-4.1-rebuild/SRPMS/rpmdb-CentOS*: No such file
or directory
