Problems with Fedora core 3

Hello,

We have been successfully kickstarting custom redhat 9, and fedora core
2 servers for a while now.

We use a reduced list of RPMS, and a custom kickstart file.
We are now attempting to port our kickstart to fedora core 3 but are
having a strange problem.

Just after Anaconda has formatted the disks, and is 'preparing to
install packages', it fatally dies with the message <XYZ>. We see the
same message when we both PXE and CD boot.

After a lot of trial and error, We discovered that if we use the hdlist
and hdlist2 files directly off the Fedora CD's, the install continues
and works correctly rather than the ones we manually generate using
genhdlist.

I would welcome any suggestions or thoughts.

Many thanks in advance,

Paul
