Neccessary metadata for NFS kickstart of base+updates(+extras)?

While I've found various (dated) descriptions of how to build iso's for
FC4 w/ updates replacing their respective originals, I haven't found
corresponding documentation for an NFS based kickstart.

If I'm _not_ using iso's, just a Fedora/{base,RPMS} tree with latest
update rpms, what meta-data  do I need to generate so that I can do a
kickstart install? Is hdlist still necessary, since there are, strictly
speaking no install discs?

... and what If I want to supplement my install with some rpms from
Extras? Do I need only add the packages into comps.xml and proceed as
before?

Any pointers would be welcome.
