I got around this by editing my yum repo files to replace $releasever with 4. Which is horrible, so I too would like to know if there's a better way. I still can't get it to work, though. I do get about 90MB of stuff installed, as promised, but there are lots of '%post(...) scriptlet failed' messages during the installation. Although many things are installed into the chroot area there are clearly some things missing. The first command I typed in the chroot was 'ls', but /bin/ls isn't there even though, according to yum.log, coreutils was installed. Actually, I was able to scroll back far enough to see this during the installation: error: %pre(coreutils-5.2.1-31.2.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 255 error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping coreutils-5.2.1-31.2 Ron _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
