Hi John,

You could instead have

/install/custom/install/centos/profile_compute.otherpkgs.pkglist

instead of

/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/profile_compute.otherpkgs.pkglist

You shouldn't really add any custom stuff inside /opt/xcat anyway; My
normal practice is to have all customer/custom stuff in
/install/custom/....

i.e.

/install/custom/install/centos/compute.tmpl
/install/custom/install/rh/compute.tmpl
/install/custom/netboot/centos/compute.pkglist
etc...

are all valid

You can have all your files that you have in /opt/xcat/share/xcat, to
be in /install/custom

I hope that helps

regards,
Arif

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
