Well .. that is not what the Single Server CD is for. The Single Server
CD is only ~650MB ... the full CentOS install is 2.2GB.
The Single server CD obviously is NOT the entire CentOS tree on a single
CD ... it is a subset of programs that we could get on one CD and have
it be a useful server. It can only hold about 25% of the packages that
we release for CentOS ... so 75% of what is ultimately available in
CentOS is not on the Single CD. Which is why we release CentOS on 4 CDs
or a DVD.

obviously only so much stuff is going to fit in one sock :)
A full CentOS set (4 CD's or 1 DVD) is required to install all packages
directly from the CD / DVD.
