FYI, I have a working CentOS4.4 kickstart CD. The issue, as can clearly
be seen from
the install.log, was that I wasn't including
audit-libs-1.0.14-1.EL4.i386.rpm in my
list of rpm's (OK, maybe not too clear - since I had to figure out which
package libaudit.so.0
was in).
The moral of the story is that install.log is your friend when you're
fine tuning your
kickstart build.

Johnny,
Thanks for responding. My bad - I have a typo in my original post. I
show
initscripts-7.39.25.EL-1.centos4
..it actually is initscripts-7-93.25.EL-1.centos4
As you point out:
"7.93.25.EL is >= 7.93.14.EL"
and I expected this to be fine too. I guess I misinterpreted the
output from pkgorder:
warning: removing initscripts-7.93.25.EL-1.centos4 "Requires:
/sbin/nash" from tsort relations.
warning: initscripts-7.93.25.EL-1.centos4 Requires:

warning: mkinitrd-4.2.1.8-1 PreReq: dev

warning: hotplug-2004_04_01-7.7 Requires:
initscripts >= 7.93.14.EL
If I grab disc1 from the iso distribution and perform a linux rescue
my failed install, I see
this is the install.log:
Installing initscripts-7.93.25.EL-1.centos4.i386.
/usr/sbin/groupadd: error while loading shared libraries:
libaudit.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
error: %pre(initscripts-7.93.25.EL-1.centos4.i386) scriptlet failed,
exit status 127
error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping
initscripts-7.93.25.EL-1.centos4
I have other error messages in the install.log as well. I have had
pleanty of success with
FC3 kickstarts. I made the (apparently incorrect) assumption that the
CentOS kickstart would
be exactly the same. Perhaps you could point me to a document?
Thanks again

Greetings all,
I'm trying to create a CentOS 4.4 kickstart CD (not a network
install), duplicating what
I've done for Fedora Core 3.
I am having a cirular dependency for initscripts, which causes
initscripts not to be installed
(no /etc/inittab when the boot gets to INIT)
The cascade is:
initscripts-7.39.25.EL-1.centos4 requires /sbin/nash
/sbin/nash is in mkinitrd-4.2.1.8-1
mkinitrd-4.2.1.8-1 requires dev
dev appears to be in udev-039-10.15.EL4
udev-039-10.15.EL4 requires hotplug
hotplug requires initscripts-7.93.14.EL
I'm guessing that the hotplug spec file is wrong. I can build my
own version and continue finding
conflicts (like the circular dependency between cracker and
cracker-dict, for example), but my
real question is, how is your iso distribution able to install with
this initscripts conflict?
There is no conflict .... at least not a version conflict. I do CD/DVD,
http and NFS kick starts all the time.
------------------------------------------
[johnny@myth ~]$ rpm -q --requires hotplug | grep initscripts
initscripts >= 7.93.14.EL
The above clearly says >= ... 7.93.25.EL is >= 7.93.14.EL, so that
dependency is met. Not sure why your hotplug is set to "initscripts =
7.93.14.EL", or at least why it is being interpreted that way by
whatever process you are trying to use.

Thanks,
