This is a work in progress and does not yet work.

Initial CentOS Virtual Machine

  • Start with a CentOS 5 Minimal Template in Proxmox VE OpenVZ Container
  • Rename template to conform to ProxmoxVE naming convention and move to template cache
cd /var/lib/vz/template/cache
wget http://download.openvz.org/contrib/template/precreated/centos-5-i386-minimal.tar.gz
mv centos-5-i386-minimal.tar.gz centos-5-minimal_5_i386.tar.gz
  • 512 MB RAM / 8 GB HDD / IP address assigned during VM creation / SELinux disabled / sshd enabled
  • Start Container
  • 88 RPMs pre-installed list
rpm -qa --qf "%{n}-%{v}-%{r}.%{arch}.rpm\n" > /tmp/centOS5_minimal_after_yum_with_arch.txt
  • 590 RPMs in SME8 installed list - on Atom Hardware with 2GB RAM / 320 GB HDD
  • Check the current CentOS Version with cat /etc/redhat-release to be CentOS release 5 (Final)
