Okay. None of those things you don't wish to do are forced on you by any version of Fedora or CentOS.
well, the CentOS installer will default to partitioning the disk with LVM, so Mike will have to specify that he wants to manually partition, then just create simple partitions.
That's the kind of "gotcha" I was looking for. One of the reasons I refused to load FC4 on my machine was that I did a test install on another machine, and it didn't even ask whether I wanted to use LVM. I need to know how to disable SELinux as well, I trow.
I'm downloading the CentOS 4.4 LiveCD at the moment, and perhaps one way to test would be to boot with that and see how it looks.
