why would you want to install CentOS without the "base" packages?
because it gives you more control over really unnecessary stuff, I don't need any CD-burning and other multimedia stuff on a webserver for instance.
All machines that I've seen that have been installed with --nobase are crippled. Some programs and mainly scripts just don't work, because they need to run some utility that is not installed.
Works just perfectly for me.
