take a look at the installclasses/ stuff inside anaconda, if you dont
want to rebuild the installer, you can just drop updated .py files into
an updates.img ( which goes into the /CentOS/base/ directory.

Also, if you are hosting another project on the CentOS distro, let us
know so we can then list you on the www.centos.org website.

Below is what I edited in the installclasses/server.py, so if I  just put that back in to stage2.img, then I would see a different txt when Im in the Installation type windows, and it would install the base group from the comps.xml.

############ FILE START ###########
from installclass import BaseInstallClass
from rhpl.translate import *
from constants import *
import os
import iutil

class InstallClass(BaseInstallClass):

    # name has underscore used for mnemonics, strip if you dont need it
    id = "server"
    name = N_("_MY server")
    pixmap = "myserver.png"
    description = N_("Select this installation type if you would like to "
         "set up Myserver community edition. ")

    sortPriority = 5
    showLoginChoice = 1

    def setSteps(self, dispatch):
 BaseInstallClass.setSteps(self, dispatch);

    def setGroupSelection(self, grpset, intf):
 BaseInstallClass.__init__(self, grpset)


    def setInstallData(self, id):
 BaseInstallClass.setInstallData(self, id)

    def __init__(self, expert):
 BaseInstallClass.__init__(self, expert)

############ FILE END ###########

I have no experience with python...
