====== Initial Install ======

Just did the standard install (no custom packages)





===== Run Level =====

Modify **/etc/inittab** so the default run level is 3 (since I have a crappy monitor on there anyway)


===== Kernel =====

<code bash>
yum install gcc
yum install ncurses-devel
yum install kernel-devel.i686
yum install gcc-*
cd /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.1.1.el5-i686
make menuconfig
make
make install
make modules_install
</code>


===== Encrypted File System =====

Setting up the main data storage system as an encrypted partition, you may want to look [[http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/EncryptedFilesystem|here]].

====== Daemons ======



===== bind =====

<code bash>
yum install bind
</code>

Then add to the system services by running **setup**

===== dhcpd =====

The one thing this server HAS to do right now is DHCPD, as archon is broken.  Looks like it might not be installed by default.  We'll use the good old **yum** tool to find it.
<code bash>
yum install dhcp.i386
</code>

Then add to the system services by running **setup**

====== User Programs ======

===== lynx =====

<code bash>
yum install lynx
</code>
