There is no script really, since its all yum repo's on the install
media, its just a case of making sure your repo's are complete, the
packages dep loop close, and running buildinstall once.
In most cases, I highly recommend you dont even do the buildinstall
process. just use what is shipped with the centos media, just adapt
repo's to taste.
Jeroen offered to have revisor do something like this, where it would
recompose the repo tree's and rebuild install media without rerunning
buildinstall for CentOS. Not sure if he has had the time to make that
happen as yet or not.
