David has released new Appliance creator and livecd tool rpms at 
http://www.thincrust.net/download. These will enable you to build Fedora 
and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 appliances.

To build RHEL5, you need to ensure that you specify the partitions to 
use ide disks (hda) such as:

part / --size 600 --fstype ext3 --ondisk hda
part /boot --size 120 --fstype ext3 --ondisk hda


while fedora needs to use scsi (sda) disks:

part / --size 600 --fstype ext3 --ondisk sda
part /boot --size 120 --fstype ext3 --ondisk sda


In addition, you must specify an selinux line in the kickstart file:

selinux --disabled


-- bk
