Warnig showed after package selection

Description of problem:
During installation with driverdisk after package selection warning is showed:
"Some of packages you have selected for install are missing dependencies..."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL6.2-20110907.1 i386 / Server 

How reproducible:

Prepare driverdisk iso image for current build with modified drivers. (see https://wiki.test.redhat.com/pholica/DriverdiskInstructions)

Create partiton (or prepare flash drive) with "OEMDRV" file system label on machine the test will be run on.

Put content of driverdisk iso on this partition.
  
Actual results:
After package selection warning is showed:
"Some of packages you have selected for install are missing dependencies..."

Additional info:
I have tested this installation on RHEL6.1 i386 / Server too and installation was successful, no warning was showed.

To me, this looks like a problem with how the driver disk was constructed.  anaconda is just warning here that what your DD package requires is not available, for whatever reason.  However, I do not know much about driver disks so I can't say for sure what the problem there is.

Hi Luboš: Can you please attach the anaconda.log and yum.log from the install environment? We can then identity the package which caused this. Anaconda uses DD just as every other repository and you are probably missing dependencies there.

Ok so it is simple. The module (virtio_blk) you used on the driver disc is not compatible with the running kernel.
