Gordon,

The ethernet problem was the old udev 70 rule problem.

Installed the packages you specified for X. Found I also needed
gdm and some fonts. X is almost working. Doing an "init 5"
brings up a X based login. Once logging in it immediately exits X.
Tried with startx and get similar results. The log files are not
particularly helpful.

After loading the gdm I did a yum update which contained close
to 300 entries. Multiple hours. Makes me appreciate the effort that
goes into creating and maintaining a Linux distribution.

Gordon,

Do you typically apply the fs merge on a host or the device itself?

It shouldn't make much difference, but you could just create a new image from the tarball.

Minor glitch. Does not appear to detect the ethernet device.
Have 2 other distributions which are ok.

I'd hazard a guess you didn't copy /lib/firmware and /lib/modules appropriate to the kernel you are using into your image.
