to package choosing, deslect everything but base. Don’t even pick specific pages from base. Proceed to install and when it is done you will have a base system. From there you install the packages you NEED for your server. You should not install the kitchen
sink for a server. If you select more than the base package, figure out you made a mistake and go back to change it, then proceed, it will not work. It will request disk 6, 3, 4, etc etc. This will only work if you get it right the first time. If you make
this mistake, reboot and do it again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">OK, you RH/Fedora/Centos mavens, so this is my first attempt at installing CentOS of any flavor. I downloaded the boot ISO from the GT mirror and burned it to CD. Then booted the system and commenced with the install. During the install
it asks what type of media has the packages. So when I tell it CD, the installer spits out the boot CD and says no CD with packages found. Obviously, the "boot.iso" is exactly that and little or nothing else. The question is, not having a handy internet connection
from this machine to the outside world, what do I need to download/burn to install the OS. Do I grab the stage2.img and burn it or are there more/other files required?<o:p></o:p></p>
