Both you are correct that the pkglist file has been updated to add
following three additional packages. If you are using your customized
pkglist, please adding these packages to yours.
      +e2fsprogs
      +parted
      +bc


Thanks
Best Regards

Subject:        Re: [xcat-user] genimage doesn't produce initrd files for
            centos 6.4




I found a bug report saying three packages were missing from the
compute.centos6.pkglist. That file has since been fixed in the distro, but
I had cloned it as comp.centos6.pkglist a while ago.

I recopied the current pkglist and reapplied our additions there and now it
all works again.

There is probably a better way but I have other fires to put out now.

Thanks anyway for the suggestion.
