Troubles running pungi

[Gary Thomas]

I'm having trouble running pungi.  What's really troubling is that this
exact recipe (set of commands) worked fine last Friday :-(  The only
thing that took place in the meantime was a power failure (this build
system was idle at the time).

I'm using the distributed kickstart file with the repo lines changed to
be:
   # Add the repos you wish to use to compose here.  At least one of them needs group data.
   repo --name=testing --baseurl=file:/mnt/work/fedora/AM

Any ideas?

[root at mac_mini pungi_f8]# time pungi -c f8-fedora.ks --all-stages --nosource
