I cannot create a livecd image from a local repo. I have
livecd-creator and all the ks files. I've downloaded all necessary

and then run createrepo on it. Then I edited the ks file with "repo
--name=jdfhjdsfh --baseurl=file:///mnt/path to repodata". When
starting livecd-creator it says "retrieving file=///mnt/dsfgsdhfshf
...OK", then it retrieves the repofiles for the other repos and starts
downloading all the files again regardless of the fact that I've
already downloaded them.
How to make livecd-creator see the already downloaded files instead of
downloading them twice?
Repos are assigned a cost of 1000 by default, with repos having a lower
cost being favored over higher cost ones, try appending --cost= to your
local repo string.
ie:
repo --name=jdfhjdsfh --baseurl=file:///mnt/path --cost=500
