Nope, this is the right list :)

I suspect however that http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/RedHat-CD-HOWTO.html
will explain just about everything you ever wanted to know about how to
update RH installation files (especially section 5, which describes, among
other things, how to generate a new hdlist file).

<OBVIOUS> Personally I'd suggest just making up a half-dozen or so disks
based on bootnet.img and using the HOWTO to build yourself a fully updated
install copy on a local FTP server to install from. This is usually faster
and easier than actually burning install cds. </OBVIOUS>
