There is a timestamp that is used to determine if something is part of
the original release.

That file is named .discinfo on all the CDs and must be in the root
directory.  If you look at a CentOS CD or DVD, you will see it.

It corresponds to a file named .buildstamp that must be in the initrd.img.

Those 2 files must contain the same timestamp ... in the case of
CentOS-5 as released by us ... it is:

200704101950.i386
(that is the number for i386)

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
