I tried to build my own installation iso's with revisor but I never successed (some problems with creating an iso after downloading all needed packages). Maybe your way is better. But it still requires a machine with Fedora and some time to download packages, create ks files and other stuff. It's a bit to tricky for me - I newer successed with GUI tool - it's far more complex than kernel building ;). I installed a few systems from net install iso, but it's PITA when you have only 1Mb/s internet connection. > - I have been doing > this for several years now - two big advantages for me are that I can > remove all the locale stuff for languages I don't need, thus reducing > the final iso size by quite a margin, and also can add packages that > are not on the original iso as well as producing an up to date DVD > install iso that needs minimal yum updates if used soon after building > it.
