Hello, all.
I'm looking at building about a dozen CentOS VM's for a project. I have a desire to use kickstart for this coupled with PXE. I'm looking for a minimal ks.cfg file specifically, I want the bare minimum of software that is needed for a system to function. I will need sshd and yum as the only 'services or applications' on top of the OS. Does anyone have an example I can work with, or suggestions on getting to this minimal configuration? I'm just looking to save some time, rather than re-inventing what may and probably is already out there.
I assume that you are looking for all of the packages that can be removed from an install that just has @core and @virtualization specified for the package groups that you want installed?
