This is a WIP!

With so many different Linux distros, package installers, and lines of thought it is impossible to describe them all.

  • For this setup I have settled on the following for this Development VM
    • CentOS 7.7 (Server with GUI option)
      • Why CentOS 7 and not CentOS 8?
        • CentOS 7 is proven and stable.
    • Host - Hyper-V on Windows 10 1909
    • OS ISO - CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-1908.iso


  • One other thing about this setup is that I set a requirement that all software installed must be from a maintained repo and that I can use "yum update" or on the GUI side Software/Software Update.  The only exception is the VIVO/Vitro software.
