I'm about to try Centos 5 (first time user).
Question: I have the 5.0 CD-ROMs, so can I install with them and them update to 5.1 via the internet, or should I use the 5.1 CDs?
Thanks.

You can do both, install 5.0 with the CDROM and do a online update to 5.1. Or download the 5.1 cd's and use those.
If you already have the 5.0 cdroms then it is probably best to do a minimal install with 5.0 then upgrade to 5.1 and then use yum to install the actual stuff you need.

Deps. on what kind of hardware you have. CentOS 5.0 CD installer can not see my SATA harddisk. So I use CentOS 5.1 CD. If you don't have the same problem I had, you can do both.
