debian does it easily, with no frigging around at all. And, if I want
openvpn, dar, bacula, amanda. backuppc, Xephyr, or Bozotic, it's just an
apt-get away.
As does Fedora. I always do text based installs (seem to me to be
faster), and when I get to the package install list, I just hit the
space bar to un-check everything I don't want. If you un-check
everything, you get about the same as if you'd kickstarted with @base.
Then yum allows me to install or groupinstall anything I want out of the
Fedora world. Easy. No need to use Debian.
It's a while since I did a minimal install of Fedora. How much disk does
it take?
How much RAM does it require to install in text mode?
