Stories similar to Cent OS after log in as root allways reboots the system

I need to clean my system and redo it all. Is there any easy way to get rid of every single package I've installed (to a point where it's CentOS minimal)? I can't remember all of the packages and

Installing packages using yum 16 weeks 20 hours ago

When installing CentOS (6.2), it installs a whole bunch of packages, but the installation is often very fast, it's hard to note the names of the packages. I have a couple of questions:

1) I'm guessing I could wait for the entire installation to complete and then query for the list of installed packages on the system. How do I do that?

The samba4 packages on CentOS-6 (unlike samba3x on CentOS5) can be installed with the standard samba packages. If you find better docs than those at

In addition, if you are currently running, for example, CentOS 5.5 then the base repo for CentOS 5.6 contains many updates for RPMs that are already installed. [by TrevorH]

I would rather Windows 7 be the default option -- how can I change it?
