Are you trying to create your own boot.iso using lorax, or are you using
the one on buildlogs? The one on buildlogs is designed to do the
installation directly from http://buildlogs.centos.org without
prompting, so you'll need network access run the installer, or you'll
have to edit the boot option and change inst.repo to point to your local
copy.
