[CentOS-announce] Announcing CentOS Minimal iso for CentOS 7.0.1406/x86_64
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-7.0.1406 Minimal for x86_64 Architecture. The minimal install iso media is an alternative install to the main CentOS-7 distribution and comes with a trimmed down, preselected rpm list. However, it still runs off the standard installer, with all the regular features that one would expect from the main distribution, except the rpm selection screen has been disabled. Running an install from this media will not allow you to change the rpms selected for install. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Download SHA256SUMs : CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-Minimal.iso: 04e99a4f1a013b95a7ebc9a90ffa9ac64d28eb9872bc193fbd7c581ec9b6a360 The ISO file is avilable at : http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/7/isos/x86_64/ Since the size for these files is relatively small, no torrent files are being released. +++++++++++++++++++++++ NOTES: We have tried to test this install for most deployment roles, including VMs and physical machines. And with lvm, mdraid, iscsi and dm-multipath environments. These images also contain the complete recovery and rescue environment found in the main distribution. You should be able to use these images from CD media, DVD media, USB storage devices. We do not recommend these images be used with kickstart files written for the main CentOS distro images. An install will setup yum to work with the regular default CentOS 7 repositories. Once the installed machine instace boots it should work just like a regular CentOS machine, with only the bare minimal rpms installed. All package management, networking and storage related functionality should already be in place. +++++++++++++++++++++++ There is no upstream Minimal media product. These ISOs only contains content found within the primary CentOS-7.0.1406 distribution. No package from outside the distribution was included and no package has been changed from whats included in the base distribution. We appreciate all forms of feedback about these images, including specific application inclusion requests or feature changes in future releases. The best place to provide this feedback is via the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) and feature requests via the issue tracker ( http://bugs.centos.org/ ).
