Group installs with yum

yum grouplist and yum groupinstall are what you want to use with yum.

  • yum grouplist tells you the available groups (similar to the groups available at install)
  • yum groupinstall installs them. Keep in mind that the shell won't deal with spaces nicely, so you'll need to quote or escape.
for example ->
# yum groupinstall 'X Window System' 'GNOME Desktop Environment' 'Sound and Video'

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
