Why not change this against "7.3"? I figured I'd mark it against the beta and let Red Hat folks open it up if they're so inclined -- easier to do that than to go the other way. To be clear -- I don't mean to include the contents of the *.py installclasses files in the comps file, but rather to include *pointers* to the various ones there. What do you think jeremy? I want to do something like this, but as previously expressed on testers-list a few times, just dropping random python files in RedHat/base/ isn't going to cut it. I think python files pointed to by the comps file (or perhaps some other index file) would work. If necessary, that file could contain MD5sums and anaconda could deal intelligently with failure there. If you create a file product.img in RedHat/base/ now, it will get mounted during the installation. The file should be an ext2 formatted floppy. Create an installclasses/ dir and put any installclasses you want to be available there. Thanks; you rock! |
