Revisor: local repo

Hello all.

I'm trying to build an f11.i686 install DVD with a custom kernel instead of the default kernel (hardware issues). I did this successfully for f8, and f10 but I'm some issues with f11. I compiled the kernel and put it in the directory: /home/peter/customkernel. I then ran 'createrepo customkernel' and the appropriate xml files appear to have been generated such that
Code:
ls customkernel
comps.xml  Packages  repodata
and
Code:
ls customkernel/Packages/
comps.xml  kernel-PAE-2.6.29.4-167.everex.fc11.i686.rpm
and
Code:
ls customkernel/repodata/
comps.xml  comps.xml.gz  filelists.xml.gz  other.xml.gz  primary.xml.gz  repomd.xml
My revisor config file looks like this:
Code:
more revisor-f11-i386.conf
[main]
cachedir=-yumcache
reposdir=
keepcache=1
debuglevel=9
logfile=-yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest
distroverpkg=redhat-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=1
obsoletes=1
gpgcheck=1
plugins=1
metadata_expire=1800
installroot=/var/tmp/revisor
failovermethod=priority

[anaconda-updates-source]
name=Fedora Unity Anaconda Updates for Fedora 11 - Sources

However, my custom kernel does not appear as an option in the package list. What am I doing wrong?
I'm using f11-64 with latest version of revisor.

Thanks!

Try to change:
exclude=kernel-PAE
and
includepkgs=kernel-PAE

And... What you have in your kickstart file? Can you post it?
