What is the error message?  Is there an Ooops trace?  a Python trace?

Sorry, it's not a bug.
The error occurs when you tell kickstart to install a package and it doesn't 
find that package name in the Red Hat Linux CD or Directory. But it tells you 
that in the last line of the suppossed "bug".
So I copied all the names from RedHat/base/comps to the ckickstart conf file 
and deleted those I didn't need and then the installation ran OK.
Thanks for the insterest.
