Now I'm growing impatient because I just want a server with MySQL/PHP/etc on it so I can start programming...as thats my true love...not system administration
I just removed an old apache package using RPM and it had troubles deleting files/folders because they weren't empty...I'm guessing there is a switch to make RPM delete non-empty files/folders...but instead I got an error and then just manually removed the files/folders to completely remove apache 1.3.x from my system as I wanted to install Apache 2 with the latest PHP5 and MySQL combos.
Well I figured out how to download/ftp apache 2 from a mirror site I found on RH/RPM site and get it onto my server. But when I attempted to install the RPM I got this error:

Basically, so long as I'm on the right track conceptually...I'm satisified and can just download and burn a minimal apache server (with PHP/MySQL) and all the PHP extensions I can imagine and FTP, SVN, etc...
I don't really need any interface as I interact with my server through telnet on my desktop...so X isn't really nedded, just the dameons and some commands I guess...
ANyone know of a easy to install distro which can do just this that I can burn and will *fit* on a single CD???
Also, if someone can tell me whether my assumptions above are correct that would be coooooool
Cheers
