I am curious, is this sort of super-minimal install your recommendation or something that came down to you from higher up? Are you also removing docs and so on? Is disk/SAN space the main issue? Will you be running yum or could you also remove everything but rpm itself and install updates via a share (or even wget script)? I'm mainly wanting to know the motivation for these minimal installs. I've done it myself and it feels good to have a lean web server or whatever, but I'm not sure if removing the 32-bit stuff is the best use of my time (may be a different answer for you of course). _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
