Hi Erich,
  I did as you said below and yes you need Cheetah, lxml, libxml, libxslt.
I got the oscar gui coming up and installed the server image from the gui after delselecting some troublesome packages. I created the rpms for fc8 and opkg rpms. and got into trouble when compiling the oscarimage client image with the fc-7-i386.rpmlist to fc-8-x86_64.rpmlist so i deleted somec enttries from this and created a ne rpmlist which worked and oscarimage built to completion. Then I used UYOK for booting the clients. The client on pxebooting complained about systemconfigurator file or directory not found ans shelled out Originally i was using a remote fc8 repo in fc-8-x86_64.url and the client image did build. So I copied the fc8 cd packages rpms to /tftpboot/distro/fc-8-x86_64 and copied over the systemconfigurator file over from /tftpboot/oscar/common-rpms over to it and modified . fc-8-x86_64.rpmlist to include systemconfigurator as an entry. I then changed fc-8-x86_64.url to contain : file:/tftpboot/distro/fc-8-x86_64 and restarted oscar. Got srver and client image to be created. Set up my client nodes and the network boot from UYOK. This time the sytemconfigurator error message went away but it said it could not find the kernel vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-42-fc8 Also I had to choose scsi.disk not ide.disk as that creates client boot problems in building the client image as i have sata drives on all nodes.
That's where i stopped. I am tired ...
REgards,

Allan,

are you working on the crispy branch or something else? The crispy branch is
known to work (with small bugs). Follow the dscription from DongInn to
get started.

FC8 packages are not included, yet.

What you can do:
- check out the branch, go into that directory
- install yume, createrepo manually
- configure the distro repositories in /tftpboot/distro/fedora-8-x86_64.url
 make sure it works by doing something like
 "env OSCAR_HOME=`pwd` yume search bash"
- then go to scripts/ and execute
  ./build_all_rpms
- whatch the output. If things fail to build, there will be a line starting
with ERROR and a pointer to the error message of the build.

Then go with the description from DongInn:
(build opkg-* metapackages, build oscar-base-* packages, make localrepos,
 install opkg-* and oscar-base-* into the local oscar repository, etc...)

Regards,
Erich
