This was created for those who want to download 1 CD and be able to do a functional install. Obviously, we can't fit everything from the 4 CD set onto 1 CD, but we may not have the packages JUST right. We welcome feedback to the packages included in the Single Server CD, so if you need something not there, let us know. The best way to provide feedback to the CentOS developers is via the CentOS-Devel mailing list: http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-devel Once you use the Single Server CD to install, you can use yum or up2date to add programs that you might need, and it functions just like any other CentOS install. Especially good is the "yum groupinstall" feature. See this link for more help with using yum: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/docs/html/yum/ ------------------------- Leonel
