You can also remove a lot of stuff from /usr/share. You can't do it
with rpm but rm will work :)
du -sh /usr/share/doc/ # 207M
du -sh /usr/share/locale/ # 234M
du -sh /usr/lib/locale/ # 102M
Of course, you can't remove stuff if you want to use it.

Thanks to all for the references.
Being the final goal a machine that *only* does
asterisk,httpd(perl,php) and sshd, I will carefully select the
packages and make sure only the minimum is there (no cups, no X, no
ftp, etc.
Let's see how it goes and i will report back. I will start today, hehe.
It must fit a CF card and my boss told me that try to put it in a 128
mb CF card. anyway Let's see how it ends....

This is my 'minimal base' that I start from. You could remove the lvm2
stuff as well. It will do an install of 163 packages and take about
540M of disk. About the only thing you will have is ssh and yum. For
a card, you obviously want to change the disk layout.
Apply all the other comments to this one.
