I do not (yet) have a config file for SL, but I would imagine the one
for CentOS 5 may be closer than the F8 stuff. Also, I heard that newer
versions of mock do not work (at least with CentOS). The latest
version known to work is 0.6.x. I got mock from the kbs-Extras repo.
It includes cfg files for CentOS i386 and x86_64.
