Hi, 
yeah I want private mirror , that could be copied to a usb-disk and use
off-line or that I could use in my local lan .
With this "private mirror" and a boot image with kernel updated.
And now already, installation use updated packages from updates in
process of install. When first install finish I have a Fedora updated,
no more updated need in that day. 

>From yours suggestion 
"That's no problem. You can just add the new kernel package to the RPMS
folder, cd to the folder that *contains* the repodata folder, and run
'createrepo -d update .' " 
http://mirrors.eu.kernel.org/fedora/releases/16/Fedora/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso
and image inside boot.iso are the old kernel from Fedora 16 release , I
prefer and I odd cases I need, to boot with an updated kernel. 
The small detail with pungi is regenerate files from
fedora/releases/16/Fedora/x86_64/os/,  os/images/ and os/isolinux/

So I think from what understand, just creterepo , can't do the solution.
preupgrade also, already , from my tests , do a installation with
updates. 
My main goal is save time on installation and if someone appears with a
computer, I can install and update it in one shot.


Thanks,
