Arno,
May we know what version of Fedora you are using, and what
version/distribution it is you''re trying to create?

Revisor does that already, so what is it you edit? Further on in the
message I see you add another option but also you want to troubleshoot
really fast. Manually adding in an option doesn''t seem like the most
efficient thing to do.

Depending on what is in your original kickstart I''m sure the sample
kickstart anaconda writes out after install is much different. In
particular when any of the packages fail to install.

I think the %post scripts of your packages is an OK point to start
troubleshooting.

Are you saying yum and anaconda are having difficulties eating your
packages, or any package? I remember something called PreRequires to
indicate the package being required should be actually installed before
the package requiring is installed. Did you check any Provides:
user(foo), group(bar), against any Requires: user(foo), group(bar)? Are
these your very own packages? Have you tested excluding your own
packages see how that goes?

I really don''t think this has anything to do with xen.

Here''s an idea. The average desktop floating around any company will
beat you to the 4+ hours of composing time (~30 minutes) and another
will brighten your day doing installs in 15 minutes or less.
Kind regards,
