We used a highly classified, top secret method ... I could
tell you, but
then I would have to kill you 

Actually ... I did tell you ... we used buildinstall

Which basically does what Jeroen van Meeuwen said ... then
you write the
directories created by splittree to ISO using mkisofs.

pungi (as it is in fedora7/8/9) will not work as anaconda is
not correct
in RHEL4/5 (and therefore not in CentOS either).

Thanks,
