• Initialise mock build environment

mock -r ds --init
mock -r ds install pungi spin-kickstarts

• Use a kickstart which you would normally use, but remove every section from it beside "@packages"

Add your local repositories

ds-build.cfg

# Add the repos you wish to use to compose here.  At least one of them needs group data.

• Copy customized version of messages and isolinux.cfg

mock -r ds --copyin isolinux.cfg  ds.msg  videonext.lss /16/Fedora/i386/os/isolinux/

• Copy your kickstart

mock -r ds --copyin ks.cfg  ks-lds.cfg /16/Fedora/i386/os/

• Build the ISO
