standalone

[Joe G]

Great work on this.  It's really going to help me out.

But, I'm running 1.6.3 on a Fedora 10 box and the --standalone doesn't seem to see the Workstation rpms from RHEL 5.3.

I have updated to simplejson-2.0.9 as per previous suggestions.

For the complete history, I had 1.6.1 working, then upgraded because of standalone. 1.6.2 didn't really work, but 1.6.3 came out before I really played with it. 1.6.3 had all the repo problems, but removing /etc/cobbler, /var/lib/cobbler and /var/www/cobbler and installing 1.6.3 and it works, but no standalone.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,
Joe

Could you paste in the command you are running?  --standalone basically
just rsync's your source tree, so if it is a pre-existing distro it could
be import that is not grabbing those.  You can overcome this by inserting
the original cd (or mounting the iso) and specifying
--source=/path/to/files
