Anaconda buildinstall: "latest: command not found"

[Kenneth Porter]

So where do I find the command "latest"? I'm guessing this figures out the 
latest release of the installed kernel, but I want to confirm. From my 
invocation of buildinstall:

Running buildinstall...
/tmp/FCBASE/fc4/i386/buildinstall.tree.21763 /tmp/FCBASE
/tmp/FCBASE
Going to run buildinstall again
Building images...
Assembling package list...
/tmp/FCBASE/fc4/i386/buildinstall.tree.21763/upd-instroot: line 50: latest: 
command not found

I'm also posting here:

Has anyone outside Red Hat successfully built a FC4 installation CD with a 
custom kernel? All I want to do is add support for an older megaraid 
controller by adding its PCI ID's to the driver's internal table. (It's an 
"i4 100" IDE RAID controller.) I've got the custom kernel RPM built and now

need to integrate it into the installer image. (I tried loading just the 
new module from the stock "linux rescue" boot but the new megaraid_mbox.ko 
refuses to insmod and I get no error message.) More on that issue here:

I have a script that automatically rebuilds the FC4 installation tree
with the latest updates. This runs every morning.

ftp://ftp.crc.dk/pub/fedora/update/

WARNING: Read the script carefully, as it contains hardcoded
paths, etc. If these are not set correctly, you'll risk erasing
the wrong directories!

The created installation tree will use the latest kernel during
installation. However, this gives some problems during
the partitioning, for some reason it can't tell the kernel
about the new partition on the disk - unless I run the
installation in text mode...
