Hello,

I have completed createrepo and pkgorder properly without any errors. But I get some errors during the buildinstall phase. The command usage for buildinstall is proper and I have all the required packages like anaconda-runtime in my custom build directory in the RPMS folder.

The error is as follows: cpio: premature end of file

I get these errors during Expanding text packages, Expanding graphical packages and Retrieving time zones.

What could be the reason for this?

This link that google found may have some good questions for you.

Perhaps the first question to ask is, "How did you get the files to your hard drive?" Did you check the media if you are using a cdr that you created? If you have an ISO image file already in place, then you could just mount the file and use the iso without first burning the iso to cdr media.

mount -t iso9660 myfc5.iso /mnt -o loop

However, you still need to perform a sha1sum on the cd to make sure it matches what was posted. There is a file that holds all of these for the ISO files. Use sha1sum -c sha1sum.txt

These techniques help protect you from media or file corruption problems. These issues could be causing your cpio errors.
