I had to do this years ago with Centos 4 to build an iso that would even
start on a old piece of hardware. It was really painful and Karanbir was a
big help at the time. Doubt if I can find my notes. These days, as long as
I can boot into a netinstal and maybe grab a kickstart file, do see needing
a custom iso. Those are for times when you can't even get through the boot
process.
