Just following up... hopefully other ones using revisor to create small isos
from rsync everything tree (under /data/users/gcecchi/rawhide_os/) could
help me here.
So I'm on F8 and using revisor-2.0.5-15.fc8 with an rsynced tree of rawhide
I modified the preconfigured
/etc/revisor/conf.d/revisor-rawhide-i386.confso that it uses local
tree without downloading what is already here and
avoiding mirrors:

19,20c19,20
< baseurl=file:///data/users/gcecchi/rawhide_os
< #mirrorlist=
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide&arch=i386
---
> #baseurl=http://localrepo/fedora/development/i386/os/
> mirrorlist=
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide&arch=i386

The process seems to stop whane creating the iso.
Running revisor from command line with the --debug option I get an error
regarding missing .discinfo (see below).
How can I create it and/or put it?

Thanks Gianluca
