Finally managed to get the automated installation going using:

http://pyxlmap.net/technology/software/linux/custom-centos-iso

The crucial step I missed after dependency resolution was to rename
34bae2d3c9c78e04ed2429923bc095005af1b166d1a354422c4c04274bae0f59-c6-minimal-x86_64.xml
to comps.xml _and_ *hand*.

I would still prefer something like revisor appearing on epel for
centos 6.4 repo.

Thanks for everyone who helped.

Should have read *hand* edit that file to include other packages which
I wanted like ntp, mc, ntfs-3g etc.

 Greetings,

 I am trying to follos the procedure as outlined in:


 http://smorgasbork.com/component/content/article/35-linux/128-building-a-custom-centos-6-kickstart-disc-part-1

 I am using Cendos minimal ISO to build a custom installer and Live CD
 (with addition of NTP, samba and some custom application with
 dependencies)


 According to the above link:
 In RHEL/CentOS 6, this file is no longer called just comps.xml;
 instead, it has some horrendous hex string for a name.  In CentOS 6.2,
 it is named
 bedb7dc8fdf920deffbdc5a70ea0d6d77255656556184f5e996e8a88a63d145c-c6-x86_64-comps.xml.gz.
 


the first page of that link says:

Look in the file ~kickstart_build/comps.xml (which you copied from
repodata/comps.xml on disc 1 of the CentOS distribution).



 Indeed horrendeous file.

 I am not able find the *comps.xml.

 What should I do and where would I find it.


[root@nemesis centos]# mount -o loop CentOS-6.4-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso  /mnt
[root@nemesis centos]# ls /mnt/repodata/

repomd.xml
TRANS.TBL



 Else what is the method for pacakaging  (Centos 6.4 minimal + some
 custom app rpms + custom configs) ?

Indeed, I did not miss that.

But I am using the centos minimal ISO which does not seem to have that file.

My original requests stand.
