[Revisor-users] Problem: building install CD

    Hello all,

I'm trying to build a custom Linux install CD using revisor. I want to add 
one of my own program to the install CD so that it gets installed when a 
user installs Linux or her box. My program can be installed using `yum' 
from my local yum repository. Now lets call my program `hello'

Before starting revisor, I add a new `configuration section' to the 
/etc/revisor/revisor.conf file as f7-hello-i386 with

main = /etc/revisor/conf.d/revisor-f7-hello-i386.conf

Now(in the revisor UI) when I select `f7-hello-i386' and say *Apply*, 
revisor does show me my local yum repository which I did add to the above 
conf file.

I *check* my local yum repository along with `fedora' & `updates' and 
click `Forward' to see the `Load Kickstart Data' frame. I *check* 
`Customize package manifest...' box, and again click `Forward', this time 
I'm greeted with this *error dialog*

yum.YumBase.doConfigSetup failed, probably an invalid configuration file 
/etc/revisor/conf.d/revisor-f7-hello-i386.conf

also, I cannot see my program `hello' in the list tab or cannot even find 
it in the search tab.

Could you help me with this?

I think error is related to the /etc/revisor/comps-f7.xml file, which I 
did not touch. I don't know how to create that file, or what to do with 
it.

Thanks!
