Only 0-3 is needed, this sounds like a bug. The importer for 1.3.X/1.4 has been changed around a good bit, so if you still see these duplicates with that version, we should fix it. If it only happens in 1.2.X, no worries, they'll be a new release out soon. As with any of the last several stable releases, we /do/ fix bugs on them before the next major release, so there can be a 1.4.1, 1.4.2, etc, until we get ready to do the next release afterwards. The import code does not assign names either, but it could be modified. Basically this is to account for the "split tree" phenomenon introduced in RHEL 5, where the "VT" repo is seperate from the "ClusterStorage" tree and so forth -- usage of repo directives in Anaconda's kickstart is neccessary to install any of the extra content. > > > Cheers. > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Information contained in this communication (including any > attachments) is confidential and may be privileged or subject to > copyright.
