didn't it work in F10? I.e., why can't I create a CentOS5 Live CD in
Fedora 10?
Anaconda, PyKickstart and mkinitrd are all inter-twined. Anything after
013 fails for RHEL 5 without modification such as a newer Anaconda,
PyKickstart and/or mkinitrd. I know there was some work with 015 and
CentOS 5 which uses newer components.
To get RHEL 5 to work for a thin client project, I "stole" the
updateDiskless (mkinitrd replacement) and disklessrc (initrd init
replacement) from old system-config-netboot and made some minor
modifications. There are some current drivers inside of Red Hat to
modify RHEL 5 mkinitrd, which Warren is working on.
