Assuming you are setting up this to do a mkisofs for a cdrom
image, or for NFS/ftp installs...
cd /<path to base dir of image>
./misc/src/anaconda/utils/genhdlist `pwd`
This will rebuild RedHat/base/hdlist according to what rpm packages
are found in RedHat/RPMS/
This needs to be done any time the rpm packages in RedHat/RPMS/
change.
