I can reproduce the problem but I don't have a fix.
My OS is a redhat-6.2 fully patched server install.
I ran the genhdlist from the redhat-6.2 files from when I
downloaded redhat-6.2 and tried to use it to build the hdlist for my
redhat-7.0 downloaded files.
First of all the genhdlist program didn't show up in my downloaded
copy of redhat-7.0. I finally skipped the mirror sites and checked
ftp.redhat.com and it was still missing.
Looks like the directory structure was messing me up when I tried:
./genhdlist ./redhat-7.0/i386
added the en and
./genhdlist ./redhat-7.0/i386/en
I see the same problem as John Summerfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
only packages with major numbers <= 3 are supported by this version of RPM
