I am trying to get my kickstart "repo" line to function correctly.

repo --name=Updates --baseurl=http://192.168.1.14/centos/6.2/updates/x86_64/

When I comment the above line my install works, When I uncomment it the install fails with a message about dbus package error.

This is my nightly script that runs:

PLACE="mirror.team-cymru.org/CentOS"

mkdir -p /var/www/html/centos/$VERSION/updates/x86_64 cd /var/www/html/centos/$VERSION/updates/x86_64

mkdir Packages rsync -av rsync://$PLACE/$VERSION/updates/x86_64/Packages/* /var/www/html/centos/$VERSION/updates/x86_64/Packages

/usr/bin/createrepo . chown -R silentm:silentm /var/www/html/centos/* ===============

Everything seems fine. however the dates and times are wrong on the files. From the real repo: Name Last Modified Size Type Parent Directory http://mirror.team-cymru.org/CentOS/6.2/updates/x86_64//

Notice the dates/times are not the same. not sure if that matters.

Also - I changed my "repo" link to point directly to the repo --name=Updates --baseurl= http://mirror.team-cymru.org/CentOS/6.2/updates/x86_64 http://mirror.team-cymru.org/CentOS/6.2/updates/x86_64/Packages/ and I got the exact same error about dbus.

What might it be that I am not doing correctly? I thought it was my local repo until I pointed to the WEB site directly.

Thanks,

This is way tooo wierd. I added to my kickstart file the "-python" to not install python and the install works correctly now.

Not sure why installing python was messing things up.
