Building a System

From LinuxFanBoy

As of May 2009, Redhat has changed the test and no longer has you install Linux. Redhat says, "Previously, candidates were required to install systems from "bare metal" in the second section of the exam. Our analysis found that installation is something virtually every candidate accomplishes successfully. However, the installation process is time-consuming. A significant amount of time was spent watching packages as they install, a task that is not indicative of an individual's abilities. Providing a pre-installed system saves valuable time."

To practice you need a running Redhat (CentOS) system. I have created a VMware CentOS 5 appliance for you to use.
