Not really secret sauce. Build all the packages, boot the result, build
all the packages again with it, figure out how to fit it all and the installer
on the CD images and burn.

Lots of this is currently done by the Red Hat internal build systems and
those are tied to a lot of Red Hat specific baggage you really don't want.

An external build system is on the todo list for Fedora
