The following are the steps for installing the minimal CentOS components for a machine that will be running Asterisk or VMware.
The steps listed below will be in point format and will not go into too much detail. The steps will be based on basic knowledge and not novice.

1. Skip Media Test
2. Remove all partitions on selected drives and create default layout
3. I deselect IPv6 support and configure IPv4 with IP, Mask, GW, DNS and Hostname
4. Software Applications.  Deselect Desktop and then select Customize now
5. Make sure that only the following are selected.
        Application/Editors
        Development/Development Libraries   
        Development/Tools   
        Base System/Base 

NOTE: If selecting Base System/Base it does install a lot of applications that are not needed. You can customise this option with a minimal of:

mlocate
setuptool
system-config-network-tui
wget
yum

Using yum at a latter stage you can install the tools and applications that you may need.

Once the installation is complete you can then look at:
1. Disable Linux Firewall
2. Time Synchronisation
3. Internode Repository
4. run yum update
