I have added the driver disk image into the initrd of RH installer and have the following line in ks.cfg: driverdisk --source=file://dd.img However, on reboot, Anaconda crashes when it tries to load drivers from the image and the scrren says it crashed after recieving signal 11. Is this a bug in anaconda? On tty4, I find the following message: cramfs: wrong magic and nothing else. The driver disk img is about 1.5MB in size.

If you're explicitly calling out packages like "sendmail-cf", does it matter where they appear? Do they have to be immediately after the name of the package group, like "@base-x" or "@system-tools"? How do you know which group a package belongs to? What if it doesn't belong to any group? And if you get the group wrong, it doesn't seem to be this is logged in any sort of informative way... it simply doesn't get included. Or am I missing something major?

You should see the following error message: You have specified that the group '%s' should be installed. This group does not exist. Would you like to continue or abort your installation?
