| | + | The package list here, was tested on CENTOS 5.5 x86_64 installed with @core. There are two methods to do this. |
| | + | * YUM method, if you already have a working yum repository available. |
| | + | * RPM method, if you do not have a yum repository. |
| | | | |
| - | [root@testkde ~]# df -h

| + | You can use the "yum groupinstall" command to get it done, but it will install a lot of unnecessary RPMs. Better to install the following key packages. Their dependencies will automatically be pulled by yum. |

| - | ========================
| + | There is already a yum repository configured in default system installation, which checks for media in any of the following: /media, /media/cdrom or /media/CentOS . Just mount your CentOS CD/DVD on /media/cdrom. |
| | + | <pre> |
| | + | # mkdir /media/cdrom |
| | + | # mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom/ |
| | + | </pre> |
| | | | |
| - | [root@testkde ~]# yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=c5-media groupinfo 'KDE (K Desktop Environment)'
| + | The following will give you a fully functional KDE core desktop: |
| - | Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
| + | |
| - | Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
| + | |
| - | * c5-media:
| + | |
| - | Setting up Group Process
| + | |
| - | Checking for new repos for mirrors
| + | |
| | | | |
| - | Group: KDE (K Desktop Environment)
| |
| - | Description: KDE is a powerful, graphical user interface which includes a panel, desktop, system icons, and a graphical file manager.

| | + | The above will install about 113 MB of packages. Notice the use of trailing <b>.x86_64</b> with kdebase, above . If you will not use it, a lot of un-necessary i386 packages will also get installed. |

The package list here, was tested on CENTOS 5.5 x86_64 installed with @core. There are two methods to do this.
You can use the "yum groupinstall" command to get it done, but it will install a lot of unnecessary RPMs. Better to install the following key packages. Their dependencies will automatically be pulled by yum.
There is already a yum repository configured in default system installation, which checks for media in any of the following: /media, /media/cdrom or /media/CentOS . Just mount your CentOS CD/DVD on /media/cdrom.
The above will install about 113 MB of packages. Notice the use of trailing .x86_64 with kdebase, above . If you will not use it, a lot of un-necessary i386 packages will also get installed.
