Hello all!
I am trying to make a stripped down CentOS 5.2 distro which will all fit on a single CD containing just the base and a few other packages I need.
I've not done this, but there have been several threads about this topic. Since the experienced folks might have gone home already, I thought I would use my (in)famous memory to mention a few things I recall they might say.
1. The CentOS wiki has a lot of useful guides and FAQS. Be sure you check them out.
2. Use the list search features to find a couple of the threads posted about "stripped", "DVD", "minimal CentOS", etc.
3. When searching using google, you can use the "site" restriction to get just CentOS site stuff. That saves time sometimes.
4. If you've done the above, please forgive - I'm just hoping to save you some time.
