I again, In my case I think that all the prerequisites are ok because I can install the 2 RPM's in the nodes if I distribute the image to the nodes.
I also tried to make a chroot to the image but I got some warnings because the /proc or /etc/mtab weren't ready. In this moment I build a script that I run in all the nodes and that script install every think that I need. The original question (I not to put the RPM's in the distro dir and then include them in the image file) was because that seams the easy way.

If you only have a couple nodes, it is your own judgement as to if this is more trouble than it is worth I guess. The nodes are really stripped down, so sometimes you need some odd prerequisites and it works better if you specify them in the rpmlist.
