Normally when you install a minimal version you already have a plan for what you will do next. In my case I want the least possible user intervention (or network infrastructure support) to get a system to the point where I can ssh in and complete the setup because people in remote locations that are more familiar with other OS's may have to do it. I'd prefer for sshd and yum to work and to have openssh-clients and rsync installed, but it wouldn't be a showstopper if it took an extra scripted step to get yum going. I'd gladly trade that for an easier way to do the initial network setup when you have multiple NICs and no DHCP (like showing you the one(s) with link up). -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
