Basic installation we use for running stress-test via SSH'ed into the system.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Partitions... 500mb '/boot'; 10gb 'swap'; remaining space '/' (root)
  2. Installation type... Server with GUI (SSH is already built in, everything else doesn't really matter unless you need it)
  3. Set your root password, and make a user account

yum -y update && yum -y upgrade && yum -y dist-upgrade

You will not have NIC connection right away, even if you have it plugged in. Navigate to the top-right for the drop-down next to the power icon, then go to each connection's settings → identity → check the 'Connect automatically' option.
