Hello there

I chose not to install the Xwindows and it still did ? a very minimal one (maybe xfce) any idea why ? I installed version 4

look at the specific package thats been installed, and then use something like this :

rpm -q --whatrequires <packagename>

that will tell you what other package, thats been installed, requires this package.

if you are only doing a minimum install, I would guess that X is not being installed, but just a few x related packages are being installed to satisfy dependencies that other packages might have.

use rpm ( 'man rpm' for lots of options ), to help yourself find out whats going on.

also, there is no xfce included in the distro, so it cant be installed at install-time. if you want xfce, you need to manually yum install it after the install has run.
