I had a working system last week with a good kickstart and I was busy cranking out LiveCDs as I tweaked an RPM for the LiveCD. Then it blew up. All of the LiveCDs would report bad MBRs. The log files I'm aware of (revisor, yum and messages in /var/log) reported nothing of any real relevance.

Since no one on the list posted any suggestions on what to do next, I created an entirely new system running Fedora 8 under VMWare. After much futzing around I've figure out not to check the customize interface button, figured out all the extra packages to disable for whatever reason, that there doesn't seem to be a revisor-fedora-8- i386.conf file any place I can find, etc., etc.

I finally get it to go past the dependency checking and on the ethernet page it will not allow me to go forward. If I hit back and then forward (to return myself to the ethernet config), it deletes the interface. If I add an interface, it will not let me proceed. If I delete all interfaces, it allows me to proceed, but stops me on the next screen.

The project I'm working on is a volunteer project to help a new (read no budget) museum. The theory is that Revisor will (1) let me focus on getting this project I got myself talked into done and (2) be the basis for several paid projects. Unfortunately, this is the second (or if you count the new Fedora 8 system, third) time I've had time to work on this project where I again find a system running under VMWare that is only used to created LiveCDs inexplicably blowing completely up. Unfortunately, I'm about to get busy on another project and I'd really really really like to finish this thing and put it to use rather than pull the rug out from under these people.

Can anyone tell me how I can:
1) get a system up and running under Fedora 7, Fedora 8 or CentOS that will predictably produce LiveCDs
2) keep it from blowing the [EMAIL PROTECTED]@#$ up

Or should I just tell them to piss off?
