Booting x86_64 devel tree

Does anyone have any experience with the mkisofs commands to build an 
installable DVD? I've recently grabbed a copy of the x86-64 devel tree and 
built a DVD iso with a mkisofs command I found in the archives. The resulting 
DVD boots fine, but it doesn't find the packages to install on the DVD (works 
great until then). I've tried using an FTP and NFS boot option as well, but 
for some reason, the devel tree sk98lin driver doesn't work quite right and I 
can't build a network connection. Anyway, I'm guessing it's an issue with the 
mkisofs command I've used, but I'm hoping someone here can point it out. I 
don't see anything in the man pages to show me what's up. The following was 
run in the directory containing a mirror of 
pub/fedora/linux/core/development/x86_64/. Hope someone can help. Thanks.

mkisofs -J -R -v -T -o fedora.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c 
isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table .
