There are so much configuration possible for a server that it would have been impossible to satisfy everyone. I rather chose to create a desktop liveCD allowing users to check if CentOS 5 is able to recognize and work correctly with their hardware (disk controller, network card, graphic card, etc). The next version of the liveCD will come with its own customization tools. Users will be able to create their own CentOS liveCD and put the software they want on it.

All of the enterprise servers I run don't even need X on them, less beryl. Perhaps they should have a posgres/jboss/tomcat/apache livecd with some petstore sample OLTP application on it. Now that would be an enterprise liveCD. Frank Agree with comment #1. All of the enterprise servers I run don’t even need X on them, less beryl.
