System Preparation

For this documentation we use CentOS 6.5 (http://www.centos.org/). It should be possible to use this topic for other Redhat based systems as well.

Download

You can download 32/64 Bit images from the CentOS website:

System Installation

There are tons of information in the internet how to install CentOS. We won't cover the details here.

System Preparation

Ensure that you use English locals until LogView Studio runs!

From this point it would be Ok to use SSH to connect to Lubuntu only.

Working on the machine directly would be fine, too.

Software Install / Update

Command may need su - for admin rights.

if the network is down use
ip addr
dhclient ethXX (XX for your interface)

Install nano (give vi a kick ...)
yum install nano
Update the installed software packages (this may take a while)
yum update
Install some additional useful packages (maybe some are preinstalled)
yum install gnome-sudoku git-core gcc* gcc-c++ kernel-devel make autoconf automake screen curl binutils wget unzip bzip2
(It's always a good idea to have Sudoku installed :-)

Hints
