Loopback mount (or whatever) the F7 domU to /mnt/temp/ (or whatever), run "chroot /mnt/temp/" (as root) and then you can run yum and do all kinds of other things from within there. I haven't tried this yet with F7 or C5, but I have gotten things working just fine to create F6 and SLES10 on RHEL5. -- Lamont Peterson <lamont@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Senior Instructor Guru Labs, L.C.
