okay this is insane. This is a server install. Let's have a single cd of
almost nothing.
A server install should be @Core, openssh-server, yum and that's pretty
much it.
Enough to get networking up and nothing else. After that the admin can
install the components they need for the service the server will provide
and be done with it.
no apache
no django
no rails
no tftpserver
no anything
ultra-clean - as servers should be. Then when you install a service
package you can enable the service and you know that your server is
setup properly: Only things you need are enabled.
