I am building a new cobbler server, going back to the beginning
and starting form scratch.

The links from the "Source RPM Build Instructions for RHEL5"
section of the download page are broken.

Not only that the first one:

    Grab python-setuputils from here

links to a python-setuptools rpm, which is confusing,
when trying to work around the problem by looking for
the similar rpms in CentOS5 and 3rd Party repositories.

I am trying

I have:
python-setuptools       noarch     0.6c7-1.el5               epel
python-cheetah          .i386        2.0-0.1.rc8.el5.rf        dag
yum-utils.                   noarch    1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2   base

So far it seems to be working

The the breed ooption is new, since the last time I was paying attention.
How well does it work with a Ubuntu Gutsy or Hardy distro?

This go around I am going to try Xen based VMs.
Need to read the documentation more carefully,

So far I have not spotted the section that tells me how
to setup the lvm storage for virt-file-size to allocate from.
