I just tried an install from my local repo (boot

Unable to read group information from repositories.
This is a problem with the generation of your
install tree.
Reboot
So now what? Is there something I can just extract
from the isos?
Robert,
#cd /pathtorepo/5/i386
#createrepo -g ./repodata/comps.xml ./
I did this and it ended with:
Could not remove old metadata dir: .olddata
Error was [Errno 39] Directory not empty:
'/repos/centos/5.1/os/i386/.olddata'
Please clean up this directory manually.
#cd ../x86_64/
#createrepo -g ./repodata/comps.xml ./
I did not build the x86_64 tree.
the -g param will setup group data for your repo.
This works for me -- adjust the $releasever (mycase=5)
for your repo.
OK, where is this #releasever set?
