It's been a while since I've used CentOS. I'm doing a test install for a server setup. I unchecked desktop and checked server.
What does server give me?
a whole pile of server related packages.
whats do you want your server to serve?
I usually install servers as 'minimal', then use yum to install the specific packages my workloads require. as my servers are usually database development servers, that often includes development tools, perl, postgresql (but I use the pgdg version, not the centos native version as its too old), and so forth.
