CentOS-5.5 works perfectly for me and I don't actually see anything
in CentOS-6 which would be very useful to me.
The only thing I would say is that I hope KS and team are not pressured

But when I said "simple" I really meant
"following official methods and instructions given by Them,

I assume that the lack of a CD drive on the HP micro-server
is a sign of things to come,
so I would hope there would be an official method

In particular, a couple of people suggested gitolite,
but when I examined this I couldn't make out what it did.

Is there a CentOS RPM for gallery2?
I'm thinking of installing gallery2 through the preinstaller
if I can't find an RPM.
Is this the best way to go?
Is anyone happily running gallery2 under CentOS?
Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.

I'm running Centos-5.1 but am a complete Centos newbie.
What is the best way of installing Centos-5.2 ?
Is a fresh installation recommended,
or can one do a yum upgrade?
Or is there any other way of proceeding?
