CentOS - Mar 2010 - Rebuild - Again!?

I putzd around and messed up my primary system. I could get it back with a 
bunch of work a-rounds but I've decided to do a complete rebuild of it. 
What I need to run on this machine (besides the CentOS 5.2 OS) is Oracle 
11g (requires gnome), VMware Server 2, JBoss 5, plus some other tidbits.

Does anyone have  or know of a checklist that I can use to make sure I've 
done everything correctly (as least as far as the OS install and 
configuration is concerned)?

Thanks,
Gene Poole

Did you preserve your original /root/anaconda-ks.cfg file?
That would be a starting point.  After the machine is up, I have scripts
I run to set up /etc/sysctl.conf, etc.
