cool, thanks:
comments on your script:
1. edit your conf file so it doesn't have any $releasever in it and you
won't need to install fedora-release first.
2. use the gpgkey= option for repositories and yum will import gpg keys
into the rpmdb for you.
3. if you want to avoid problems with scripts/triggers on install you
can add:
tsflags=noscripts notriggers
to your [main] in your yum.conf - it will keep %scripts and triggers
from your rpms from running.
4. you shouldn't _HAVE_ to make /dev/null - you can even bind
mount /dev/ in if you need to.
5. don't forget the mount for /selinux
6. if you're doing this on x86_64 for x86 you can run 'setarch i686'
first to make it believe it is an i686 system.
later,
-sv
