Hmm my CentOS 5 VM installations are just base (and no groupinstalls on any group) so it just weighs in under 1GB. A few are set up as a GlusterFS cluster filesystem with automatic file replication; others are JVMs running on Sun Java and JPackage. > I just need something modern enough (e.g. same kernel and glibc as > RHEL 4) but hopefully small enough since I'll just be running a JVM on > the distribution.

Yeah, I was wondering about this too, being used to Debian-based distros ;-) Cheers, Zakame -- Zak B.
