RHEL5 - copy files from DVD during %post

[Shabazian, Chip]

How big are the files?  If they are small enough, you can use an old
workaround I had to use a long time ago where you create a ram drive,
copy the files there in the %pre, then you can mount and access that ram
drive in the %post.

Subject: RHEL5 - copy files from DVD during %post

So, I've read that anaconda got broke in RHEL5, and it ejects the DVD
too early.  I found a post about creating a new stage2.img with a couple
of lines in dispatch.py swapped which is supposed to fix this.  I did
that, and wound up with a DVD that is ejecting right after the SCSI
drivers load!

I really need to be able to copy files from the DVD during %post  What
is the correct incantation to make this happen?

Thanks...
