If you download the iso and view it then you can see which packages Trixbox loads by default. On the CD or in the iso file find this directory: /CentOS/RPMS/ In it are all of the packages that Trixbox installs during the CentOS installation. Afterward, the Trixbox install process runs the script install.sh - open it up and you'll see a line that says yum -y install alsa-utils audiofile-devel bison <etc.> That will give you the list of packages that Trixbox will start with. I would recommend starting with the Trixbox install and then adding what you need. It is much easier (IMO) and keeps things clean. One package that I add immediately is samba-client.i386 - I need to communicate with several Samba servers right after a new install, so I just do: yum install samba-client.i386 All done! If you know which packages you want to add you can manually yum them one at a time, or you could write a script with a line like the one in install.sh. Personally, I modified the install.sh script, added a few other goodies, created a new iso file and burned a brand new CD that installs Trixbox with my customizations. This is useful for creating a backup as well. I keep a copy of my *conf files on another server, and after the Trixbox install I have a script go grab them and put them in /etc/asterisk. Very convenient for those of us who'd rather write Perl and shell scripts than manually copy a bunch of files all over the place.
