I did it, but it was same error.
Before run "yum", I crated a rpmdb into installroot below.

# mkdir -p $DDIR/var/lib/rpm
# mkdir -p $DDIR/var/lock/rpm
# rpm --initdb --dbpath $DDIR/var/lib/rpm

Any other ideas? I tried to "base" instead of "core", but there were some dependency issues.

/usr/sbin/groupadd: error while loading shared libraries: libaudit.so.0: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory

I also tried "yum install" and "yum localinstall" instead of "groupinstall", but another
dependency problem showed up.

I just want to install "base" group (at least) to chroot directory. Any ideas?

Thanks
