You can also use package caching. I believe you add
--cache=/path/to/cache to the livecd-creator command. You can check
the mail archive for the directions.

Following up on my
own email... I am making progress, but not because
I changed
anything... I now have success in creating a live CD, just by
running _exactly_ the same thing again. Now
its basically working
(without changing a thing... Yeah, I have a hard time
believing that myself.)
Now that I can
basically create a bootable media... I want to customize it.
But if I use the
standard approach of always downloading the RPMs
across the net, it
takes a long time, so therefore I'd like to have a local
repository to suck
from. I haven't been able to find a 'good/working'
set if instructions
to follow that a) creates a local repo, and b) changes
required to the
kickstart file so it _successfully_ uses that local repo.
Surely there must
be a definitive set of instructions/docs for this
_whole_
downloading/setup/building/customizing a liveCD process?
(I haven't found
any 'complete' instructions yet.) Pointers anyone?
TIA
