Hmm, can you help isolate when we do and do not need to add "-s sha" ?

After '-s sha':           Not necessary

I was unable to install a Fedora11 system since it kept complaining
about the disk not being found (i tried hda, sda and xva) so i gave up
on that one.

I haven't yet removed the F10 distro so if there's something more you
want me to test, let me know.

  

Excellent.

So this seems to imply that if we add "-s sha" to all of our createrepos, life will be good .. provided of course older yum accepts "-s sha" ...

I'm guessing "Not necessary" doesn't mean that it fails if you add it?

If so, that's an easy fix, which is good for us!

If you haven't already opened a Trac item on this at fedorahosted.org/cobbler, please do, so we can make sure to get this in for the next release, which is /probably/ 2.0, but given this may be annoying to some folks, it may warrant just one more 1.6.X in the next few weeks.

I'm trying to keep 2.0 from growing too much, mostly concentrating on Cobbler Web and finishing the command line, but needs of finishing up and testing it will keep that a ways out.
