Did you do a "yum install mondo" or did you install the packages
from mondorescue.org?


I rebuilt the mondo packages on K12LTSP 5.0 and stuck them here:

   ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/testing/mondo/

I have not tested them, so I'm not sure if they'll fix the problems
you are seeing or not. If they do work, let me know and I'll add
them to the yum repository.
