Reopen Issue

if we generate a centos iso on fedora-9 (with the latest updates) it
can't boot. the reason is the squashfs-tools. beacuse on fedora:
squashfs-tools-3.3-2.i386.rpm
while on centos
squashfs-tools-3.0-4.i386.rpm
while the centos kernel only contains squashfs kernel driver is 3.0 so
can't use the fedora (3.3) generated squashfs during the boot.
if i recompile the centos squashfs-tools rpm on fedora-9, install it on
the host which generate the revisor iso, then everything works, but imho
it's a bug (since currently can't use a centos iso generated by revisor
on fedora:-() so it'd be useful to fix it.

The explanation and workaround for which is in a blog post I did:

(Sorry there's no way to close this ticket other then wontfix, what I mean to say is cantfix)
