Am I missing something?   If this is true, and the team is still in

Thanks.

Many, many discussions on this over the years on CentOS and Fedora lists.

Basically CentOS-4 (RHEL-4) was based on Fedora Core-3. This version of
Fedora had the "Everything Install" so RHEL-4 had it.

CentOS-5 (RHEL-5) is based on Fedora-6. This version of Fedora lost
the "Everything install" so RHEL-5 doesn't have it.

It's not coming back so you'll have to work round it ;-)

A couple of very helpful commands post install that might alleviate some of your pain:

yum grouplist

and subsequently

yum groupinstall

Very helpful for installing Gnome or Development Group after install on machines that you don't install stuff during installation.

(remember to put quotes around two word group names when doing a groupinstall)
