One thing that I did that saved me some time is copy all of the ISO's to a 4Gig USB drive to intall. It was nice not burning CDs and changing them every 10 mins. Thanks for all of the tech assists!!

Often I just use the first CD (out of the regular set of install CDs).

Choose "customize package groups" (or whatever is the name of that option) and then unselect all package groups except Base.
This will give you a relatively "minimal" system. If you want to install anything after that, just do a "yum install".
