Pungi exact package version

[Thomas S Hatch]

I am building an auto install iso for some repeated, specialized deployments
and I have run into a problem.  I am building them with pungi and using the
latest packages from fedora 11, but a bug in the 2.6.30 kernel seems to be
preventing me from installing from cdrom.  Anaconda fails to find the cdrom
drive on the hardware I am using (IBM hs22 bladecenter).  The problem is
fixed by using a 2.6.29 kernel.  So I was hoping that I could build my
installer iso with pungi, and the updates repository, but exclude the latest
kernel so a 2.6.29 kernel is used.  Is this possible without maintaining a
modified local copy of the updates repository?

Pungi does not support selecting exact package nevra in the %packages 
manifest of a kickstart, but Revisor does; use --kickstart-nevra

I guess you mean --kickstart-exact-nevra, or is this equivalent?

Thanks, I found another workaround for now, but if it comes up again I will
look into revisor.

Oops, yes, I mean --kickstart-exact-nevra.
