They all declare what they depend on, so there's no true "root"
package. You're right, though, there is some ordering involved. The
process gets fun when two packages depend on each other. Here's the
ordered list of packages for rh-7.2-full:

Jeff wrote a hardcoded script to build a Redhat root filesystem
early on. I've unofficially taken that project over; the scripts involved
are at http://www.stearns.org/mkrootfs/ . I'll be posting about them in a
little bit.
The scripts start with a small list of required rpms (apache-,
tcpdump-, etc.) and try to build a root filesystem with those. When the
build fails because of a missing dependency, they add the needed rpm just
before the package that needs it. If two or more packages need each
other, they're listed above separated by #'s. That's a signal that they
need to be installed in the same rpm command.
Once all dependencies have been satisifed, the final build into
the root_fs file starts at the top and installs them all.
If you want to see how it's done, take a look at updateme (the
top level script) and mkrootfs (that builds one root filesystem) at
http://www.stearns.org/mkrootfs/).
Cheers,
- Bill
