This is familiar.

How did you set up your repositories? I am attempting to build a 20+ node
cluster with FC8 on the i386 platform, and this was the first problem I
encountered.

Making the packages available with a URL repository allows the wizard to do
its' thing and be happy about it, but again fails violently at the image
creation stage. I have asked about this repeatedly on this list, but the
answers I have gotten are useless.

Keeping the local DVD repository plus the Everything/ and updates/ remote
repositories allows the wizard to install, but past that it refuses to work.
