What's interesting is the top level repomd.xml file and whether it references the same types of information. If I should venture a guess, I'd say that the Spacewalk-generated repomd.xml does not have the group data because there are no comps there. -- Jan Pazdziora Principal Software Engineer, Satellite Engineering, Red Hat ___ Spacewalk-list mailing list Spacewalk-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list

Re: [Spacewalk-list] Kickstart CentOS 6 Fail Spacewalk
An update to this issue is if I use repodata generated from a local yum repository it works just fine. One other note I would like to add is that my CentOS 5 installs work just fine with the repodata pulled from /var/cache/rhn/repodata/. One other issue I have seen with 1.6 is with CentOS 5 kickstarts are displaying a message about kmod kernel is not needed. Any ideas as to the cause of this issue?
