Jennifer -

Check out the [email protected] list for more tips - but I ended 
up taking a comps.xml file from a FC3 install and edited it to my 
tastes.  I modified @base and @core to only include what I thought I 
needed, then added individual packages afterwards.

Unfortunately, I'm on the road, and none of this info is with me at the 
moment.  However, if you take a look at the ...base/comps.xml file for 
pointers, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.

Hope that helps
