[RULE] Some experiments with Slinky 0.4.05

[Ingo Lantschner]

Hi Franz and others,
I did again some research with Slinky 0.4.05 as base. After downloading  
the devel-tarball I did some small change in it.

rm .../filesystem/scripts/3/all_packages.disc?
cp .../minidist_list  .../filesystem/scripts/3/all_packages.disc1

So I replaced the rpm-list from Franz with a customized one - including  
all files from FC3-test3 minimal install. (Produced by rpm -qa on that  
Anaconda-installed system)

Finally I did ./makedisk.sh and started the nfsrpms-install.

What did surprise me: I have seen heavy networktrafic between my  
nfs-server and the slinkymachine for aprox 5 Minutes - during that time df  
showed always only 11% used. So it looked like as if I was installing into  
/dev/null. How can this be?!?

Finishing the install I got the install.log attached.
Most interesting IMHO this part:

I also attach the packagelist.

TIA for any hints on what's going on here - Ingo.
