With FC5t2 you won't be needing to patch Anaconda or flags.py.
Aren't you the one who put in the "What is rootpath mode?" in the FAQ?
Have you been reading the list, or what is going on? :-P

Oh, also I think that isn't a Kadischi FAQ, since we are on the subject, 
it has nothing to do with Kadischi
all to do with Anaconda.

This is something I am concerned with, cdrom:// is currently not usable 
with Kadischi.
As it stands, I've tested Kadischi with a DVD media repository suing 
cdrom:// cdrom://hdd:// and
a local file path, to the mounted optical media, and they all fail for 
different reasons.

Perhaps Bill Nottingham can get some work in on Kadischi, and do what it 
is he needs to do.
Otherwise I am plenty happy to get you guys setup with a makeshift, 
temporary solution to building RAWHIDE
ISOs. I've already built a few minimals, some with Gnome.. and they all 
work excellent.
