Hi, sorry to be late,
It does not work again.
let my download full centos dvd1,2 and update repository. I used
64-x86_64-2013-03-18-Install-DVD.iso
and want to test SL-64-x86_64-2013-03-21-Everything-DVD1-2.iso.(as Matthew
said)
let me emphasize that if I put all desktop package group in %package
section my iso runs in graphical mode correctly!!.
I want to have "minimal iso" that *install* in graphical mode and
*boot*with minimom packages in text mode!
