update redhat 8 kickstart

[Peter Ziobrzynski <pzi pzi net>]

I am following the procedure to update my redhat 8 kickstart RPMS with 
the updates that was described here for redhat 7.1. The kickstart starts 
and looks like going well (progress reports are moving) but finally it 
looks like glibc gets conflicts and is not installed and everything 
hangs. I did the following:

1. Get all original RPMS from:
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/8.0/en/os/i386/ and put 
it into directory:
/export/redhat8/RedHat/RPMS

2. Get all RPMS updates from:
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/8.0/en/os/i386/
and out them into the same directory:
/export/redhat8/RedHat/RPMS

3. Remove duplicate RPMS (using Jason Tibbitts perl script posted on 
this list).


4. Rebuild /export/redhat8/RedHat/base/hdlist with:

cd /export/redhat8/RedHat
genhdlist --hdlist=base/hdlist --withnumbers /export/redhat8

5. Run the kickstart. Error messages:

* glibc-common-2.3.2-4.80 conflicts with to-be-installed package 
glibc-2.3.3, removing glibc from set
* ... removed
* WARNING:  not all packages in hdlist had order tag
* found the comps package
* failed to install comps.rpm. oh well
* Writing main configuration
* self.hostname = jump.foobar.com
* GRUB commnad root (hd0,0)
install /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd0) /boot/grub/stage2 p 
(hd0,0)/boot/grub/grub.conf



Everything hangs now.
What am I missing?
