Jai,
I like this second thought you expressed.
When building from CentOS CD/DVD it is common to build servers first with
Gnome as for DeskTop use. After fully configured, we always change them
down to run level 3 for server mode use. The extra programs on the hard
disk are not usually an issue to most Enterprise IT folks.
If we expect the Enterprise-IT person to build the OS from distro, then we
need to document
the required build details, then when we get our first script to examine
it, we can survey
the landscape and see if all the right stuff is present.
If we expect to fine-tune a minimum image size, then we must do the
2->3->2->3->
dance until we really shrink it down. However, I feel that decision can
be held
until we see a complete running SER with all goodies that can be dropped
in on top
of a known OS baseline.
Right after new year, I will build two CentOS-5.1 machines and put them on
public IP for
examination and tinkering by all. This should be helpful for developers
to confirm
what is available in standard distro.
