I have found this link http://owlriver.com/tips/tiny-centos for installing centos on a minimal system. I am looking at putting centos on a 1 GIG flash drive. The above page talks about removing packages after install to attain the small size.

however, I am getting blocked at the install page about not enough room to install. All I have selected is the base package. nothing else.

Is there a way to install "less thank" base... I tried to option off items in the base package but the last message I got was about 1044 was my packages size...

Anyone have suggestions or have tried to install on a small device. THanks,

Jerry

Create a kickstart file with the packages removed as shown in the appendix on their web page.
