[Fedora-livecd-list] CentOS 5 Live CD

I'm currently trying to build a CentOS 5 live CD with the livecd-creator 
script (version 007). I modified the creator script to avoid 
try/except/finally structures which are unsupported by python 2.4.3. I 
also had to force the creation of /etc/sysconfig in install_root to 
avoid errors during the language and timezone configuration.

Now, I am stuck with this error:
[root at localhost centos-live]# livecd-creator 
--config=/root/centos-live/centos-livecd.ks
[...]
Package cadaver - 0.22.5-1.el5.rf.i386 already installed and latest version

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/subprocess.py", line 975, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory


At this point during the livecd construction, only boot, dev, etc, 
lost+found, proc, selinux, sys and var directories are present in 
/var/tmp/livecd-creator-xxxxxx/install_root/


Any help would be appreciated,
