I also keep a respository of the updates and the install rpms as you and 
then you can go to the next step of bootp/kickstart installation that
way you never need the install disks again.

I don't have a repos for my rpms, I run a post install script that does
other things as well. It NFS mounts the build area and installs the rpms
needed. That way my post install does things like setup tmpfs for /tmp.

I guess I should setup a new repos for my stuff never quite had the
motivation to do it.
