Oli...perhaps instead of taking out your anger and frustration on the CentOS packagers, you might wish to vent at the Upstream...because, when all is said and done, CentOS is a repackaged RHEL. Whatever the requirements are for the upstream are the requirements for CentOS. Whatever the installer looks for in RHEL is going to be the same thing that the installer looks for in CentOS.
Well they did have the opportunity to make changes in the minimal iso since that doesn't directly correspond to a RHEL version. I haven't used it yet because I already had the dvd downloaded, but if you have reasonable internet bandwidth, I think a minimal initial install makes sense, followed by telling yum to install whatever else you might need since there's a good change you'll download them as updates anyway.
