i added this not long ago (well yesterday) to the README

********************************************************************************
* Making your custom install cdrom *********************************************
********************************************************************************
If you have your own rpms you want to add, or make your own updated cdrom, you
just have to update:
- Mandrake/base/hdlist: use ``misc/genhdlist .''
- Mandrake/base/depslist: use ``misc/gendepslist -h Mandrake/base/depslist 
Mandrake/base/hdlist''

Optionnally, you can modify Mandrake/base/compss, compssList and compssUsers
See below for information about these files.

nope, at least not more than what there is currently in the README

Mandrake/base/compss
        obsoletes comps. It store packages in different categories, a bit like
        the %{GROUP} field

Mandrake/base/compssUsers
        obsoletes comps. It contains the different user classes like ``Graphics
        Manipulation'' and ``Games''

Mandrake/base/compssList
        for each packages, it gives the appreciation for each type of user.
        used to preselect packages
        used to decide to show or hide packages.

if someone wants to complete or something better, please do!!!!!!!!
(how i hate writing doc...)
